Sorry to interupt you're conversation but i can't find a private messaging thingy on these forums.
Its looking like a very nice build mate and for such a good price. I have a couple of questions about it though
1) Im in the process of looking to build a new computer and it's going to be for uni and all. I was interested in looking into over clocking and whatnot but do you reckon it would be better to just get an i5 2500 for stability? Also with stability you mention having a small HDD to backup you're OS incase you're SSD fails. Could you not install a backup OS on one of the HDD's you're storing data on or is that not possible?
2) Also how did you go about getting a sponsor??
Sorry if they are noobish questions but im clueless compared to everyone on here

On OcUK it seems that the i5 2500k is the same price as the 2500 
If you run something in raid does it mean they act as one HDD? and does that let them run quicker?

depends on what raid version you use - just wiki RAID

just seen your project dude - very impressive!
what do you think of this project? any suggestions?
i thought i'd update with a benchmark
bad company 2
1080p @ 60Hz
Max graphics setting (no AA)
5850 1gb @ stock
fluctuating between 70-75 FPS , inside it might hit 80 and at lowest ~65
overall very happy, get ready for the next update within the next week (gtx 580 inbound )
UPDATE:
3d mark 11 score with the current system (5850) = P3925
