Hi, im thinking of building a new pc when i get my student loan next week.

http://img337.imageshack.us/my.php?image=pcqe1.jpg are the parts im thinking of.

was wondering if id missed anything out, or anything can be changed, or specs that would be all round better?

budget is about £800-900

thanks in advance

Personally I would go the Intel route - Quad Q6600 perhaps and maybe a Abit IP35, or an Asus P5K-E board. Scrap the GTX and get either a new GTS or the GT. Also go for a corsair HX520 PSU. Looks like your missing a hard drive too, or are you using from a previous computer?

Like fobose suggested I'd go with This

I'd also think about adding a Freezer Pro seven for better cooling as a side thought or later upgrade.

Maybe even something a little heftier, like a tuniq 120. Artic coolers are ok, unless you actually want to overclock much.

I wasn't overly sure that would fit in but I definitely subscribe to better cooling.
