I am about 5 minutes until I click the buy button. I was planning on getting all of this on the 21st of June (my birthday) but I couldn't ignore the 'This Week/day only offers'.
Anyway just in case there is something else a lot better for the price:
(There is no change in prices, parents are already not too happy about me going over budget and have already seen the price.)

Well to me I thought that I would need something a LOT bigger to support SLI 560ti's which would probably be the logical upgrade in future and I can't afford something 800W+ atm :(

Ordering right now anyway :)
 
Aw well, I bought it. Apparently the whole lot shouldn't need more than 450W and obviously I have left some room there. I have heard some bad things about OCZ as well. Not sure if BeQuiet are much better though tbf
I went cheap with the mobo and CPU as these are the first things I am expecting to have to replace but I wanted a base rig that I could upgrade in future now as my laptop is currently dying.

Will definitely post a build thread with pics for you all :)

bequiet PSU will be perfectly fine for that. mine powers my GTX460 and 955BE just fine, so the extra ~40W shouldnt be a problem

CPU also wont have any problems with the latest games as i have the same, and it does just fine

your first upgrade should be the motherboard, but good luck with the build :D

hmm, as many other people seem to be, I am waiting for BD before making any upgrade decisions. If they turn out to be all everyone hoped I'll first upgrade the motherboard then go to BD when I can. If not then hopefully SB prices will go down a bit and I can switch to sandy bridge. Either way I want at least 6 months of usage out of the current components with possible upgrades at christmas. :)
 
Just realised I bought a Coolermaster 430 case while it was out of stock. It never flashed up or anything so I never noticed, wish I had checked a little more closely now. What would normally happen now? Is the whole package delivered separate to the case or is everything delayed? If the payment has already gone through how easy is it to just change cases?

Also does anyone know where I can find out how long it is until they are back in stock?

Use the webnote system and ask if you can cancel just the case part of your order, I'm sure they'll let you do it.
 
Everything will be delayed m8 I had a similar situation waiting for my Antec Kuhler 920, if you want to change cases then give them a ring quoting your order number and ask them to change the case for you, they should be very accommodating :) they were for me when I upgraded my Kuhler 620 to the 920 anyway ;)
