Posted links instead of names just to give a better idea of what im after. Anyway, main useage will be for 3D Intesive appplications, like 3D Modeling, and I have many open at any given time. Will be playing a few games, mainly stuff like Dragon Age and Mass Effect, as long as it will play them on mostly good settings im happy there.

Couple of questions also...to make sure iv'e got it right. Am I right by saying all I need to get right is the motherboard and matching CPU, the motherboard supporting the make of graphics card and the RAM speed, and then the power supply having the right connections...? Just to make sure.

Of course, any changes or suggestions welcome. And of course, will it work.

Think that's all..thanks a lot!

Dont take this the wrong way, but linking idividual items like that is just annoying, and you missed out part of one of the links too.

But after going through each item, I have done this for you.

VAT is being charged at 20.00% VAT : £161.34
Total : £968.02


theres method in my madness as to why a few items have been changed.

1) the antec300 is a old overpriced case, the antec100 is newer, better cooling, all balck interior and more.

2) triple channel ram is no good, needs to be a dual channel kit.

3) why such an expensive motherboard? the one I have selected does all the good stuff too.

4) the western digital 1Tb is no faster than the Samsung F3

5) the XFX psu is made by Seasonic, same power and cheaper.

6) you can afford a GTX560 with the above items, so why not:D

Like I said, First build :P This is exactly what im asking for, don't appologise. I know the links are annoying, but if it's just the names people might not...sort of...notice. Im scatty anyway, never check posts properly. Why is tripple channel no good, out of intrest...? Also, should have mentioned, in future I MIGHT go SLI, and im obviosuly not an expert, but are there enough slot on the board...?
