3 years ago it was pretty good.. and its stood up well, but its time for it to get replaced so I can have prettyness back in games.

I've got bout 800 quid to spend, and I already have a monitor, speakers, keyboard, mouse.

Heres what I've come up with..

Suggestions or is that pretty much spot on?

I'm waiting till the BFG card is back in stock (site says next Wednesday) to put my order in :)
 
I'd go with the Lian Li PC7+ case, apparently the antec is a pain in the butt, saves a tenner too :D
 
Well, you might want to buy another drive, 160GB-250GB for OS/Games alone. And the 400GB you have chosen for storage.
 
Ordered this lot in the end... (after noticing I'd missed out a PSU from the original one :p)
