Nice build. If you cut out the colour-coordinated cables you could get a 120GB SSD in £10-15 over budget. Or if you went down to a 280 instead of 280x you could get an SSD in and the cables but I'd choose the X over some pretty cables.

EDIT: Or you could just get the cooler I specced earlier and get an SSD in.

Sounds like a good idea..

Spec has SSD / 280x althought is a little over, the build has everything and would be a great peice of kit for the buck being spent.

I've got to admit, I've only just checked back and a bit sad to find the stuff about MSI cards, I bought a GTX 780 at the beginning of March, I hope that's safe, but I have spec'd a 280X for him. :|

This is what I went with in the end. Sorry for no links.

It's not in my shopping cart anymore that's the problem, I've ordered it.

Should I contact them and ask about swapping the GFX?
I feel a bit bad, just emailed asking about the Case as they're still Pre-Order :(
