Thanks for the instant reply but I forgot to add that I have a spare DVD Drive and the casing you recommended didn't interest my brother for some reason.

I'll be changing the HDD for a Samsung Spinpoint4 or a Deskstar

As for the PSU
http://xfxforce.com/en-gb/Products/Power-Supply/XFX/Pro-Series/ProSeries-550W-PSU.aspx Is this one you recommended?
and is there any other viable PSU you might recommend as well

Any thoughts about this video card choices?
MSI GTX 660 Twin Frozr III 2gb (oc ed)(cheaper) vs XFX HD 7870 2gb (slightly more expensive)
this might seem wierd what if I get the Power Color HD 7950 it's pricing is the same with the XFX

 

[bigcyco1]

I would not suggest Power Color brand the 660 is fine if you rather have that then 7870 as for the power supply here some other suggestions http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151093

[SkiYakiToz37]

It's either Antec One or NZXT Apollo now

 

[bigcyco1]

Lol!I always get stressed out when i buy a new case so many options good luck either one should serve you well.

Thank you for the help Ill be choosing the Antec One since it has USB 3 and I love all black casings
but may I ask why I can't take the PowerColor HD 7950 for a spin?

 

[bigcyco1]

Your welcome!And you could take the powerColor for a spin it's just i wouldn't because the brand isn't known as being the most reliable i also hear it runs hot and does not overclock well.
