suggestions i'd rather not spend much more than this but if theres a massive upgrade for low money i'd love to hear from you
 
I'm also putting through some orders today

Corsair H50-1 High-Performance CPU Watercooler

do i need to buy 2 fans for this either side?

Antec 300 Three Hundred Ultimate Gaming Case


Akasa AK-VC03-BLUV Vortexx NEO VGA Cooler Akasa AK-VC03-BLUV Vortexx NEO VGA

for my 9800gt as it runs stupidly hot, i presume i have to take the old fan and coolers off

yeah, i get 75 degrees have done since i got it about a year ago. I've tried all forms of cooling in my case diffrent fan positions ect. I know it generally runs high from googling on forums. I cleaned it recently and there was a 1/2 degree drop. I've run most of the temp programs
 
Well i wasn't really looking for gfx and cooling advice just my build suggestion :D ordering the antec 300 and h50-1 today with my current gear
 
Forgot to add i'm still looking for a mother board, also thinking of hooking my pc to my tv. I have hdmi and optical on my tv. so i'm guessing the best bet is optical audio as i dont have hdmi on my 9800gt. then connecting the video with a vga cable
