Ok so my needs (or rather budget) has changed since I was last here, I was looking at getting the following:

Foxconn H67S Intel H67 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Mini ITX Motherboard £69.98

Intel Core i5-2300 2.80GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor £147.98

OCZ Gold 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-10666C9 1333MHz Low-Voltage Dual Channel Kit £39.98

Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000.C 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache £44.98 (after the sale has ended as I cant get it before the end of the day tomorrow).

I already have the GPU Radeon HD5770 1024mb so that is not a problem the only thing that I want to inquire about is the following PSU good enough for all that?

Antec High Current Gamer 520W Power Supply £61.26

I am planning on getting the Antec 1200 case as well, so if you intend to offer an alternative PSU I would prefer it to be made by Antec also, thanks for helping me out and I intend to buy each piece separately so if the price changes all the better lol.

That PSU will be fine if you really want an Antec. I wouldn't really suggest buying bits separately though, if anything is faulty you won't know until you've got everything together... Save up a few hundred £ and see what the best prices for stuff are then, prices will always be coming down.

You could however buy some of this RAM now as it's so cheap:
