Need Specs (£2k or lower)

Slap it all in a Coolermaster Cosmos S.

I am in the process of building a rig into one for a friend. Should hopefully have the rest of the bits in the morning so will be posting pics in the case section.

Its a monster. Had to order several 60cm fan extensions its that long.

Moved to nVidia last year and i'm glad i did.

ATI have only just come good this last year in honesty, HD 48XX line is outstanding, understand the mistrust though.

No i7? then you probably want a Q9550 on a 780i to keep memory costs down, for that size of monitor grab a single GTX 280 or even the GTX 260 216 is sufficient and add another when you get a better monitor/when needed. Again I'd watercool and overclock the lot. I'd buy4X2Gb DDR2 at nice timings while it's cheap too.

For case I'd side with a Coolermaster HAF 932 or if you prefer understated the Akasa Mirage and chuck a 1000w Corsair PSU in there.

Let us know what you settle on.
