Thanks for the welcome!

Awesome, I have made a few changes based on your suggestions. Im trying to get it just under £1000 really, although 20 quid wont break the bank.

I'm just wondering how much something like this would cost for the OcUK guys to build =D. I am also curious about SSD's, do I need to get a separate one and a regular HDD? or would one of them Seagate SSHD hybrid things do the job? it works out a little cheaper with one of them instead.

Thanks again for your advice!

Thanks for the help. I was adding fans because some of the reviews on these cases have stated that the stock fans can be pretty noisy, especially the front 200mm one, so figured i would swap that out for 2 140mm and then fill out the case with the other 3. Maybe I am going OTT with that though. Can't believe everything you read i suppose.

Must get some sleep now, Ill be back to finalize the build tomorrow.

Thanks very much =]
