NZXT Hale PSU in white? Can get a 850W version for the same money.

Actually the PSU is not visible in the case is it?

That's going to be a sexy build. Make sure you get some white braided cables to finish it off

1 x NZXT 24-Pin ATX White Sleeved 25cm Extension Cable - CB-24P (BWW) £10.99
2 x NZXT 8 Pin PCI-E White Sleeved 45cm Extension Cable (CBW-8V-45) £8.99 (£17.98)
1 x NZXT 8-Pin (EPS12V) White Sleeved 25cm Extension Cable - CB-8P (BWW) £8.99
Total : £41.87 (includes shipping : £3.26).

And post pictures when you're done

Suggest change fans on the H100i as they aren't great quality and haven't got white blades to match your lovely build. Or go for the Kraken X60.

I agree with all the above, PSU cables and fans.

These fans would look lovely:

YOUR BASKET
2 x Alpenföhn 120mm Wing Boost Plus PWM Fan - Black & White £12.95 (£25.90)
Total : £29.81 (includes shipping : £3.26).

Normally i'd say the sabertooth is a waste of money as any other £130-£160 board will do just the same, but MY DAYS that will be one sexy as rig.

I'm worried by the colour of the Sabertooth. It's like a creamy beige colour. ANyone recommend a good All black or green and black board?

I like your suggestion with the white sleeves but I am planning on sleeving the original cables/sata cables with the green/green&black sleeving from Teleios.

I may go air-cooled on the original spec until I can afford the watercooling within the system also. Plan is Acrylic tubes with Mayhems cloudy green solution.

It will be White green and black basically haha.

Now I wonder if I can using bits from maplin to make the NZXT logo to pulsate

Black and Green, You say?

YOUR BASKET
1 x Gigabyte G1.Sniper Z87 Intel Z87 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard £119.99
1 x Avexir Venom Series 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-17200C9 2133MHz Dual Channel Memory Kit (AVD3U21330904G-2CIG) - Green Light £79.99
3 x Alpenföhn 120mm Wing Boost Plus PWM Fan - Shamrock Edition £12.95 (£38.85)
Total : £248.42 (includes shipping : £8.00).

The Sabretooth will look all black with RAM, GPU, etc installed.

If you want green, the obvious choice is a Sniper:

YOUR BASKET
1 x Gigabyte G1.Sniper Z87 Intel Z87 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard £119.99
Total : £129.59 (includes shipping : £8.00).

EDIT: Plus Doomed's RAM and fans.
