Oh and i dont need a monitor as ive got one coming from samsung to replace my bust one

Things like the case are personal preference really - you could save a bit by going with the Antec Sonata that comes with a PSU ass standard.

Edit: Only a DVD ROM in there, you could easily add a DVDRW for a little more.
