Finally getting round to buying a new computer have around £1200 but want to keep it below £1000, I'm really into space saving, I'm going to use just 1 HDD and 1 SSD so if there are any good cases which just have space for 1 of each of these that would be nice, I also want to make it look visually appealing with a nice open window etc.

I need a good watercooling system as I may overclock and some general build advice, been out of the PC building community for a long time.

Why the different graphics card?

I really want to have shadowplay for recording games, the AMD version Raptr/Plays.tv isn't very good from what I've heard.

Its just because, you can have a 1060, I did like the 480 performance when i tried one.
