I already have 2x 22" viewsonic's, keyboard, mouse, 1tb seagate and an asus 6950 (Planning on getting another at some point)

Any suggestions would be welcome

MSI GD65 or GIGABYTE UD4 motherboard.

1600mhz ram is cheap and enough.

Changed ram to ~ http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-060-GS&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=1517

lots of people moaning about ASUS P67 boards.

For £5 more you can pre order a OCZ Agility 3 60GB. Almost twice as fast.
or cheaper (if you don't care about write speeds) Crucial RealSSD M4 64GB.

Nice thanks, didn't see that on the products list

Spec me some after market fans for the H70, Would be awesome if they were red. Going for a red lighting mood in the case

Antec Kuhler 620 is as good as the H70 whilst being quieter.

Has added benefit of costing less too!

Any reason you're not getting 8GB in 2x4GB?

The 2x2 were the only options for Gskill at 2133mhz, I've changed it to the 2x4 1600mhz instead. The blue ones are twice the price and all I see is the slighty different timings :/

I'll take a look at the Antec Kuhler, thanks

Edit, If I read good things about the Z68-UD4 gigglebyte mobo I may be swayed to go for it, Looks interesting.
