Ok ive bought evreything so far just waiting on delivery (should have asked first). Bough most of the stuff from OCUK some else where. Not sure if all the stuff will work together!!! All prices include VAT and shipping.

CPU - i7 920 £202
COOLING - ThermalRight Ultra + AC5 £60
MOBO - Asus P6T6 WS Revolution £240
RAM - 6GB OCZ Blade CL9 - PC3-1600 / 2000Mhz £112
GPU - EVGA GTX 280 £200
PSU - Hiper 880W HPU-4M880 £100
HDD - Samsung 1TB F1 £72
CASE - Antec 900 £68
CD/DVD - 2 x LG DVD Burners £38

Total Cost inc VAT & Postage = £1100

Will all this stuff work together and reccomendations, can still change around. Dont game that much more for Photoshop etc
 
Looking good, one thing I would change is the Hyper PSU to a Corsair or BeQuiet, you can get away with a 620w ~ PSU without problem.
(unless your going to add another 280gtx)
 
no sticking to single card, but will not be upgrading for many years to come so thought id put a higher wat psu in incase upgrade to newer card down the line. Ive had my last pc for 5yrs!! amd 64 x2, so needed to upgrade
 
What do you need a GTX 280 for if you don't game? :confused:

I know CS3/CS4 have GPU acceleration built in but I can't imagine it'd benefit from much more than a midrange - even a 4850 would probably be overkill.
