Hi, I'm after a new build to mainly play Arma3/2 and Dayz. The price range quoted is not including the Devils Canyon chip. I don't need a monitor, keyboard or mouse. Although they all need replacing they can be further down the line. Also, I'm considering water cooling in the long run so I'm thinking of running on stock air cooler until then. Operating system is needed as well as an internal dvd drive. Id really like to include case below if possible. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
 
 
 
 
That Phanteks case will be hard to beat for the money! You'll have to wait over a month for it though.

Yeah but that case seems exceptional. Ill be waiting on the CPU as well.

This seems petty but do the logos on the case you suggested come off. Not a fan of it.

Do you mean on the front panel? I would have thought you can the case I have had a logo and it was easily removed without leaving anything behind

You will need more than 650W if you ever wanted to go Crossfire later on, hence why I specced 850W, the EVGA is made by Superflower and carries a 10 year warranty.

Review from JonnyGuru - http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story&reid=377

750W is about what you need for Crossfire 280X also.

The Gaming 5 pCB is also all black instead of brown.

The TEAM Xtreem RAM is faster.

The OcUK DVD-RW is a Smasung model too, and my favourite:)

Yeah that last part list you did looks great . I would hope to crossfire later. Do you think it would be worth ordering all that now though or just pre order the case and CPU for now and see what's about later?
 
Some items are on offer (the RAM) and so should be got as soon as possible.

But then postage costs of multiple orders becomes a factor as you do not qualify for free delivery, unless you live close by to OcUK.

You can always order it all and just build the system on a cardboard box and fit into a case later:D

Edit,

Apparently this SSD is due in today - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-036-CR
