Ok so after months of floating around the overcklockers Uk and .com forums, and receiving lots of advice from all the helpful members, so I figured now that its done I'd share what you've all helped me with for my very first build :)

So here's the build:
CPU - Intel Core i5-4440 3.1GHz Quad-Core £100.00 (EBAY)
Motherboard - MSI Z87M GAMING Micro ATX LGA1150 £80.00
RAM - G.Skill Ripjaws Z Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 £60.00
SSD - Intel 520 Series Cherryville 120GB 2.5" £40.00 (EBAY)
HDD - Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM £37.00
Video Card - MSI GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB TWIN FROZR £80.00 (EBAY)
Case - Corsair Air 240 MicroATX £80.00
PSU - be quiet! 580W ATX £53

TOTAL - £530

It's everything that I wanted, fast, small, quiet, energy efficient and nice to look at. I also have to say I'm very impressed with the 750 Ti, destroyed everything ive thrown at is so far with full graphics settings.

Big thanks to everyone who has given me advice :)

I'll get some pictures up.
