Nice system, i would imagine with all new parts (self build) and no software it would be a £400-500 build. minus speakers and other tat.

Used - £300ish. minus speakers and other tat.

I would get a branded PSU if not just for the warranty, do you need DDR3 ram?

Also the case sounds cheap ;) get something that is solid and provides good cooling.
