Well as you say, shouldn't be too much of a problem to attach a Red LED thing. Money well spent is what I want more than the colour of my computer case!

1 x Crucial RealSSD M4 128GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive £149.99

I just bought a new computer a month back. I bought 2x 60gig agility and Raid 0 them. That would be faster and cheaper than the Crucial 128 gig wouldnt it? worth checking out at least.

The OP is now looking at Corsair Force 120GB.

Also 2X Agility3 @(£78.98 each) = £157.96 which isnt cheaper than a £149.99 Crucial M4
 
well other than the CPU returning to £180(~£22 more) the rest wouldn't change much(the ssd will go up by £4 and ram may go up by a few quid also but there'll be another ram to take it's place).

might have something good which may overcome the £22 hit on the CPU, as long as you buy by the 21st you'll be able to claim the cashback on the msi board.

Hopefully should go in tomorrow anyway. Poor new Apprentice entered my details wrong. I quite like the idea of 2 weeks pay in 1 though :)
 
Looks like I'll be back again tomorrow or Thursday... Not going to be getting it till tomorrow, so going to miss out on all the deals...

But I'm sure there will be better ones right?! :(

the main 'hit' as I said will be the i2500k returning to £180 unless ocuk have i on offer again by the time you order in the next couple of days, the rest are't as significant and you have ram on offer every week so you'll prob get the kingston one on offer this week rather than the corsair. you may get lucky with some good offer that makes up for the cpu increase.

the msi offer is till 21st so you've got a bit of time on that(well 6days).
 
Glad to say, all my pay is finally sorted. Thankfully had a little bit of back up money to pay out my car insurance!

Back to my computer! Understand that most, if not all of the offers have now stopped. So could I please get a respec from you wonderful guys? :)

I also have a bit more money to spend £875 max and also free shipping, which is nice :)

- Would like a sort of constant colour co-ordination (pref red. but not top of the list)
- An nVidia Graphics Card, unless someone can change me!
- A nice looking case, with plenty of room and good cable management :)
- DON'T need a HDD, got 2x 500GB HDD's to see me over. But do want an SSD :)
- If possible, a free version of BF3! :)

Thank you :)

Tried to base it on your OP, as I'm guessing they were things you wanted (e.g. case which is mainly personal preferance) and were all good components

I think the cash back offer is still on for a few days on the MSI boards, if you wanted to save a bit:

Thanks beejjacobs :) I've always had a wonder about that Antec Kuhler, do I need to put water in to it? Sorry if it's a bit of a dumb question! Also, about the case, if you happen to know another nice looking case, with the attributes of what I said - then I'll look at it. I'm open to any information at the minute :)
 
Bitfenix Shinobi with or without a window.

You did say you are trying to save money, not spend more;)

This is true :( I always have them moment's where it's like... I really want to save money, but at the same time, moments where it's like I wonder how much better it would be with a few extra quid...

inb4 a few quid better.

Would you pretty much agree with that spec above then stulid?
 
Well you wanted to spend your money wisely while keeping a theme,
