Hey guys

Finally got enough cash saved for my computer that I want :)

My budget is £450. (£150 more than I originally had :p)

I just need the tower, No OS, just the whole base.

It's going to be a gaming machine, running on my 23" 1920x1080 res monitor so I'll need something that can run games as good as possible in this res :D

Looking to purchase next week, so enough time to get peoples opinions and stuff


Thanks in advance!

To transcribe the above links:

Coolermaster 335
Phenom II X4 955
MSI 6870 OC HAWK
Gigabyte GA-MA78LMT-US2H 760G
OCZ Intel Extreme XMP 4GB (2x2GB)
Cooler Master GX 650W '80 Plus'

All decent, but I'd replace the motherboard with an 880GM-UD2H (more reliable and better build quality), the RAM with Corsair XMS3 (lifetime warranty, far more reliable and better for overclocking), the PSU with a Corsair or XFX model of the same wattage, and I'd stick an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro in there too. Still under the £450 budget.
