Gaming Pc

[Vision]

Hi guys. I'm looking into buying a new computer in the £700-900 price region. My current setup is adequate but isn't really a gaming rig. I'd like my new one to be decent for gaming/storing music and whatever else. I've seen the Titan Goliath which looks pretty good, but I'm not sure whether or not there's something better out there. If I were to get it, which would be the best options to take? Eg. Case, gpu...

Or..should I wait a while? Is anything new on the horizon that is worth waiting for in my price range? I realise there's new stuff out all the time, but is something special coming in the next 6 months or so?

Also, if someone could explain the major differences between the i5 & i7, and which one is better I'd be really greatful.

Thanks for the suggestion TheDon. I noticed the cpu is Oem, is it much cheaper to buy that instead of a standard chip and is there much of a difference in heat production/life expectancy? You went for an i5 rather than i7, any particular reason?

Not too bothered about the cases looks, aslong as it looks ok; So would I be able to buy something a little cheaper? Or is it needed for cooling?

Cheers for the replies. I currently have a Dell 5150 (No hating ) with:

Windows Xp 32 bit
Pentium D 2.8GHz
5GB of DDR2 Ram (Not all of it can be used but 2x2GB was cheap)
HD 4670 512mb
160GB Hard Drive

It does ok for what i want it to do now but I'm guessing not a lot of that would come in use for my next computer. It's a Dell aswell so the mobo and case won't be much good either? How much of a performance increase could I expect if I went for TheDon's suggestions?

i5 mainly for your budget, as you're looking at a minimum £100 jump in price to an i7

Why is there such a jump in price if there's no big differences?
