Hi i'm looking to upgrade and change my machine, used for gaming and video edditing and was drawing up a list of what I thought would be good to have. The budget is around £1000.

any thoughts on the selection that i have chose so far. Prices are from OC,
I havent decided what case yet. I was thinking of trying watercooling for a quiet machine but not sure if budget can stretch to that.

Many thanks for your time. Smee
