Cool,

Now to work out where im going to find another £500 from to buy it....

*starts to busk at the entrance to OcUk forums* xD
 
Get the P182 instead of the P182, they are roughly the same price however the P182 is the later model that allows you to route a lot of power cables, sata cables, ide cables and fdd cables behind the motherboard and subsequently gives you a much tidier system and better airflow.
 
Ok i'll just go look at that now thank you =)

It'd be nice if i could knock the price below a grand but i suppose for what i'm getting the price is good really....
