Here is my full system that am going to buy, am ready to push the "go to checkout" just wanted to know if I was missing anything? or if anything needs changing? or I am finally ready to press the big red button?

Going to be used purely for gaming, design/development (photoshop, maya, flash, sql server etc) and video

updated spec alteration found here

Was hoping to keep it more closer to the £1000 mark but ended up being £1500 :eek:

Thanks All ;)

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions guys, after listening to everything that was said here is my revised spec:

Should I now click the big red buttom? or is more tweaks needed?

I have to say almost £200 for a 80gb SSD did hurt, but I have put it in since a lot of you recommended it.

This spec is actually cheaper :p

Thanks once again!!!

The only other thought I've had is what is the thermal compound that comes with the Fenrir like? I don't know anything about them so I don't know if you might want to spend a few quid on some aftermarket paste or not.

I can definitely invest in some Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound its only £6.99.

Ditch the monitor and get the Benq LED 24 inch, which will suit that graphics card better.£152.00

Ditch the Velociraptor, and get the Sammsung F3 1 Tera £66.00, perhaps get two for less price then you would have paid...

Ditch the Logitech 210 Speakers, they have no bass control, turn them up and you shake the room to, not good if you live with parents or flat...Creative T10'S.?

Wait one month, ATI 5850 will drop in price as Nvidia release their new tech, get a cheap placeholder card until then, say ATI 5450.

That way you get bigger screen, more storage capacity, and better audio..cheaper.

Oh the Ausus P6T-se same price, good motherboard.

Well Benq LED 24 hasn't got very good reviews so I doubt I purchase that, do you own one? or have heard good things about it?

I did Ditch the Velociraptor for the intel 80GB SSD Revised Here but if I don't get the SSD then Sammsung F3 1 Terra does sound good.

I go for Creative T10'S. then over the Logitech 210 Speakers since it better audio like you said.

With Nvidia releasing in about a month like you said that could be quite interesting and could have a positive effect on the ati prices.
