Hey everyone,
so after a while of researching and waiting around to go back to uni, it's nearly time for me to actually order my new system!
I have a fairly good idea of most of the things that I want in my spec which I'll list below but there are 2 things that I would appreciate a bit of help with.
1) I'm not completely settled on the case, if anyone has any experience working with the one I've chosen that would be great!
2) I haven't got a CLUE about which motherboard to use, don't mind spending upto £150 on it if necessary.
Thanks for reading through what I've read so far and I'll hugely appreciate any comments and help,
Thanks in advance,
