So this is the spec everyone has helped me with as you can see i have upped my budget to £2,000 including mouse/keyboard, monitor (144mhz) and a better graphics card. I would like to know a few things now i have changed a few bits:

1) The 780 is quite expensive can a decent spec 770 run an 144mhz monitor smoothly with high settings?

2) In conjunction with no.1 i may go for a 7990 at the same price roughly will the psu be fine for such a beefy card?

Oi! Stop ripping off my specs lol and why two HDDs? ;)

The H100 refurb is a great price. However the H100i you used before that came bundled with the i7 does have an LED he can set to green. I look forward to seeing what he goes for in the end and how he styles it :)

I had two PSU as well earlier, missed the 2nd drive, ripping off your specs, oh please!! :eek: :p
 
Cheers for the reply's lads, can anyone spec some pre braided cables in green I'm not sure which ones I need that show through the window! : )

I missed that you must have ninja edited the extra PSU out :)

I'm sure you were spec'ing that before you even saw my post, only teasing. Think I'd rather have the 840 Evo and the optical drive a little faster for the sake of a couple of quid. Other than that our specs are identical (bar the spare HDD)

I hope we get to see pics of this rig built :D

Is this where I step in?

Hell yes! Bring the Corsair Vengeance and the fans!!!! :D
