what do you guys think?
 
Hmm, ok Doom

You see the one you suggested earlier on; MSI motherboard , does that support x5 fans?

I will need 5 in total, that is 2 in the front, one at the back and two at the top of the PC case but then I'm going for H100 for the top. So i will need the three fans to be connected to the board?

I did mention that I can stretch my budget to £700 hence i added gigabyte 7870 which is at £200. Is there a big difference between the two, MSI 7870 Black Knight and Gigabyte Windforce..
 
Won't I see performance difference if I go for £200 gigabyte?

How about this then for the build

MSI HD 7950 Twin Frozr III Boost Edition 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card **NEW REVISION**??

I am going for this spec to meet my gaming needs, now before I purchase this within the next two months I want to know if this system will cope with the max settings on the games which I will intend to play on 24 inch Samsung display?
