New to the forum, thought id skip the introduction and get straight down to business 
Im looking to do some upgrades to my computer.
Firstly im after a new case since mine is about 3-4 years old
In terms of design i do like the lian li/silvestone cases I want something that obviously has good cooling, but doesnt sound like a rocket while running.
I dont plan to upgrade my cpu yet since most games still use dual core, and i dont use my system for much else, im planning on overclocking my cpu instead. I was looking at getting something like this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-002-CS that supports various differant sockets so when i do upgrade, i wont need to replace the heatsink. Also would like 1-2 fans to go on this.
To control all the fans would like a pretty decent fan controller.
Lastly i think i need a new power supply (i have some random make) i recently got a 5850 and later this year/januray time, im planning to buy another for crossfire. Would like something that will be powerfull enough for them & future upgrades.
So to sum it all up i need.
I would say in total id be willing to spend around £300

So to sum it all up i need.
[*]Case - Would like a nice bit of room in it for future upgrades.
[*]Heatsink - Prefer one that supports multiply sockets
[*]Fan/s for the heatsink if needed
[*]Fan Controller
[*]Power Supply - Powerfull enough for crossfire & future upgrades.
