one question:

- should i go for 520 or 620 psu (want to run 3 HD's)
 
if you want headroom and you have the money, go for the 620, its not much more to add.

your adding fans, HDD, you might as well :)

I would also say the 620 as youll have scope for other things to add too.

Also you need a front bezzel for that dvd drive as the lian is not the same colour black.

Also if you are getting artic silver you should get the OEM q6600 and a 3rd party cooler so you can overclock it. You cant overclock on the stock cooler so there is no need to use artic silver on it.

just ordered and saved a few quid on the weekend specials...

just need a case now (its out of stock)....

very excited.
 
Shame about the case. If you want to spend more the Antec P182 is an amazing case. I beleive its superior to all but the most expensive cases in my eyes. Very well made.
 
its just a little bit bigger than i like for cases. but ill to think about that if the pc7 isnt back in stock in a day or so..
