Just finished my new build

Decided to go for a smaller Micro ATX size this time.

components used are:-

Lian Li PC-V351 B £72
Akasa AK-PA075AM01 750 Watts Venom power supplu £69.85
Intel Core i7-2700K 3.5Ghz SKT 1155 £227.8
Palit 4GB D5 X GTX680 Jetstream £481
Gigabyte H77M-D3H Micro ATX £62
Crucial M500 240GB 6Gbs SSD £133.29
Geil Black Dragon 16GB 1600Mhz Dual channel kit £66.66

Around £1112 all in.

Took some fiddling getting it all in the case, but, it booted first time.


Currently just using the default cooler that came with the retail processor.


Might be looking to over clock, but, will need to get a better cooler before I do so.
Since the case doesn't have much room what cooler does anyone think will offer a best result for such a small space available?
 
I'm using AXP-100 and like it. It's 58mm tall. I found fan pulling air out of cooler worked better.. http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18477087&highlight=axp-100 My suggestion would be turn the PSU over so it's draws the air right on up from cooler and out of case.

AXP-100 £39.99

Prolimatech Samuel 17 = £32.98 is another option but you would need a fan so no cheaper
