Thanks for the replies guys.

Yeah, looking to spend about 1k. Most of the list is OCUK sourced, couple of products from competitor order come in just under 1k.

Interesting about the case, what other suggestions do people have? Keep in mind it would need to be able to suppoer the cooler rad.

I know the cooler is a bit overkill, but i have seen how easy it is to fit and how much lower the temps with one is so will probably still go with it.

I prefer ATI to Geforce, nice card linked reaper but ill likely stick to the ATI.

Stulid, do i really need a different PSU? this one maybe? http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-116-AN

It's a gaming rig. Occasional LAN party.


Cheers all,
Achilles
