I am in the process looking to upgrade my gaming pc. Its started showing its age and struggling with most newer games. I have a Antec 902 case which I would like to keep, but have lost all the screws and other things that came with the case so if that will be a problem will have to add a new case as well.

I have a 7870 gpu which I am planning on using till the new 1070 comes out. ANd then either get that or will get something that has a price drop. So far I have picked out the following

My basket at Overclockers UK:

Total: £428.01
(includes shipping: £11.10)

How does that look, and do you have any suggestions for changes that can be made. Also anyone know what I will need to get in order to mount it all in my old Antec 902.

Thanks Everyone
 
I will switch the ram out for the one you've suggested.

I have found packs off standoffs but am not sure if they are all the same or case specific. I am a bit concerned as on my build that I have now I missed two screws so most likely won't have enough to reuse them on the new build. Think I will end up getting the Enthoo Pro Mid Tower Case to ensure I have everything
 
Thanks for your suggestions, I have changed out for the parts you have recommended and have gone for a new case to save the hassle of trying to use the old one. I will only be using the 7870 gpu, ssd and hard drive from my old machine so will need windows for the new one also.

My new basket looks like this

What do you think of the cpu cooler, and does the rest look ok?

Thanks
