Going to hit the checkout button tonight hopefully. Can't be bothered waiting for new hardware any more. It'll be run on a small CRT anyway!!

Total: £579.10

Any way I can save money with just as good performance? I chose the OC GT because it's apparently in stock tomorrow.
 
Looks pretty good. I have no idea about that case so I can't say if it's good or bad. The cooler's a good one, but might limit your overclock. You should get to 3ish GHz either way.
 
I'm happy with a 3.0GHz OC. I'm not paying £47 for a Tuniq Tower. OCUK have noticed the increase in them atm so they have put the price up from like £32 to £47 in the last few days.

I chose that case because it looks quite nice and accommodates like loads of fans. It's either that or an Akasa Zen? Or possibly a Lian-Li. Not sure. Wanting to save money, not gain! ;P
 
I've got the same CPU/Cooler combination and I managed to get mine to 3.5Ghz pretty easily. It'll probably go to 3.6 but any more than that and you'd probably be puttin more than 1.55v through it, so that's probably your limit on air. It's still pretty fast though :)

Thing is though I'm using an antec 900, so you'll need a case with some decent airflow if you want to clock it pretty high.
 
Well the dominator holds up to 7 120mm fans. I think it comes with like 3 or 4, so I could add more if need be.

So, it's all good then? Going to hit that buy button soon!
 
Lol i didn't know that. I think that's quite a new case. And if it comes with three or so, you should have enough airflow. It's always good to have places for extra fans in case your system gets a bit full of components and stuff

Looks good to me anyway
 
Alright!

Hitting the checkout button. Here goes nothing!

It's my first ever build. I'll let you guys know how it goes. Hopefully I get it before Friday!
 
Looks nice m8. As alway's if you get stuck or unsure ask! We donl;t want you frying anything lol.

Nice case aswell, it's the one i may be buying soon, ive decided to buy a component a pay packet lol.

Good luck!

I demand thorough photographic documentation, especially of the case! Let me know if it's any good since its price is so comparatively low. :)

I agree! :) I've heard very little about this case, and I'm really interested in what the build quality's like and stuff. Although being made by coolermaster it'll probably be fine.
