To be honest i really like the way this case looks, however what is a different case that you suggest ?

I've seen a few of those NZXT cases and they always look very cheap and plasticky. If you live anywhere near Overclockers nip up to the shop and have a peek.
They've got a pink one in there that looks....well it just looks disgusting if I'm completely honest :eek:

If you want a decent quality case have a look at the likes of Silverstone, Corsair and Lian Li. You can't go too far wrong with any of their cases.

I'd probably opt for the Corsair Carbide 540 at that price point - link It can be had in black, silver or white.

Are you sure you still get the free headset with the motherboard? When i clicked on it there's nothing about a free headset anymore.

Thanks.

It looks like it has been removed. I know it was definitely there earlier though. Maybe it was a limited offer.

Any suggestions for this so it rounds to to £900~ :)
 
That cooler might not fit in the case. The Case has a max of 160mm for a cooler, and the Raijintek is listed at 160mm, although I seem to remember it is a few mm more.

Stulid will probably know :D

Could grab a 2TB storage drive in place of the 1TB. I'd personally go for a Barracuda but you seem to prefer WD.

Just saw Lee's post. You might have to change your cooler instead. Hardware Secrets has the CPU clearance at 165mm, but other sites have it at 160mm.

Looks good.

Just a question, why the 650W PSU? 550W will be more than enough for one 770, and if you're thinking SLI in future, you'd ideally want a 750W. 650W would run 770 SLI but would be pushing the PSU a bit too much.
 
Alright I've have changed the PSU to a 550W.
