Looking to build a gaming PC, preferably looking to use an Intel i7 chip but could be swayed if pros / cons are worthwhile.

Budget is around £900 but again, can go slightly above, slightly below depending on pros / cons.

Already have an OS / Screen / Keyboard / Mouse etc so just the tower and components. Also don't need a massive amount of storage i.e I have just been looking at 250GB SSD's as will only need to store OS and Games on it.

The idea of a Mini ITX case draws me in like ...

But not 100% sure on the cons of this (i.e space limitations / Memory limitations)

I have a few parts in my basket, but as I am not sure on what would match the case, I don't want to start getting excited!

Any help would be appreciated.

This PSU allows gives you the chance to add a 2nd gfx card.

The NZXT case doesnt have any option to add an internal DVD drive.

An i5 is a great gaming CPU.
