New gaming rig help

[kablooey]

Hi. Having not built a pc for about 3 years I feel a little out of the loop so any help would be appreciated! It's primarily a high-end(ish) gaming rig I'm after and space is a bit of a premium so the smaller the case the better...Budget is around £1500 but flexible.

Here is what I have so far after a quick browse...

Intel Core i5-3570K 3.40GHz (Ivybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor (77W) - OEM

You need screen/os/mouse/keyboard?

Do you have any components, like sata hdd/dvd, keyboard, mouse or OS you can reuse.

Screen is down to preference. Same for case too, I'm not a huge fan of that one.

Thanks for the suggestions...I hadn't considered the Samsung SSD but it looks good for the money! mini-itx has also given me pause for thought but I think I would rather go for the smallest atx I can get away with...Something like the 'Fractal Design Arc Mini.'

Do you have any components, like sata hdd/dvd, keyboard, mouse or OS you can reuse.

My other PC is used for office work so this will be a from scratch build but I do have a spare pair of 2TB WD HDs, and speakers.

The only thing I am certain of in the original spec is the monitor, got to be 24" and 120hz for gaming.
