Buying tommorow quick spec check.

Hey everyone, well its that time to upgrade before the tax man takes more of my hard earned cash . Pretty simple im going for the £700 intell build suggested in this link.

I do have a few questions and changes though.

1. Going to change the Antec 300 to the 902. The case is a little larger and provides better cooling.
2. Changing the 5770 for the XFX 4890. Even though its only a DX10 card ive heard it performs better, I can allways upgrade the card in the future.
3. Think i read somewhere that the 500gb HD runs a little faster then the 1TB? Would you suggest this. I only use my computer to watch movies and game. On my current system I have used just over 100gb. This is why the 1tb feels a little overkill.
4. Was also thinking of changing the PSU from the antec to the Corsair TX 650? On offer at the moment.

Sorry for the wall of text, I will also be purchasing windows 7 64 bit so all together this build is looking around the £800 mark. Any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated.

Sounds fine. Corsair PSU is a good'n, 500Gb should be more than enough for gaming and the 4890 is a good card. No need to change the case but you can do if you like. The cooler in the spec below might be a better choice aswell.

Another spec to contemplate for around the same price:

Bear in mind you'd need to add an OS which would take it over £800. Prices might actually be a little cheaper than they are in the pic btw.
