Well thankyou for all your help over the past few days everyone who has posted to me.
Im 100% Definatly not getting the 9550, i am going to get the i5.
And i am also definatly splitting it into 2 months which gives me 450 each month. This month im going to buy processor and gfx card.
I was going to get i5 750, unless you think i should get an i7 with the new few extra pounds. And a 5850
I don't think you're being realistic enough with your expectations yet scott. If you do still plan to buy a complete system with monitor, OS software, mouse+keyboard, case, 500gb harddrive, dvd-rw, 4gb ram, power supply, motherboard, cpu and finally graphics card, you can't just suddenly make jumps up to a higher tier of product and expect everything else to fall easily into place.
In taking pretty much the cheapest option at every step, the i5 750 + cooler + radeon HD 5850 + all the other internal components and OS software would come to a total of £758 + shipping + vat. That leaves £142 to get a monitor, keyboard and mouse...so you'd have to compromise by getting a 20" monitor which kind of negates the whole point of having an HD5850 since 1600x900 is hardly a demanding resolution to play at (I game at 1440x900 on my 9800gt). That leaves no extra monies for buying an i7 and also a pretty dismal situation where you've had to pick every single other part in terms of how cheap you can get them and not whether they are the right part for the job.
Perhaps one reasonable step might be to drop from an i5 750 down to the i3 530? That frees up £56 at current OcUK prices. Dropping the HD 5850 down to an HD 5770 would also free up another ~£100. You'd then end up with ~£300 with which to get the monitor, keyboard and mouse, and more importantly you'd have the ability to bump up the quality of other parts that you maybe wouldn't be totally happy with (you mentioned you'd quite like a blueray player instead of a normal dvd-rw for example).
Or you could take the more usual OcUK approach and increase your budget even further.
