But the MSI P67A-GD65 Intel P67 offers you 20% vat cash back, and takes the motherboard down to around £120.

thats ok, my main concern is will the power supply hold out ok as it's only 650W it will have x2 GTX470 in SLI,

If I can get a better power supply for around the same money that would be great but I dont really know what one is a good one.

I'm now also thinking about buying two

Crucial RealSSD C300 64GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive

One for windows and one for games, while still having my 1TB for music video's and such.
