Advice on New Build around £850
Last response: in Systems
I'm looking to replace my Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 purchased at the end of 2006 and I have around £850 to spend. I'm going to keep my existing 2 x WD Raptors in raid as my primary drive, but the rest I'm looking to upgrade. At the moment I'm looking at:
*Gigabyte GeForce GTX 560Ti OC 1024MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
*Intel Core i5-2500K 3.30GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor - OEM
*Asus P8P67 PRO Intel P67 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard - (Sandybridge)
*Antec TruePower Quattro 1000W Modular Power Supply
*Coolermaster HAF 912 Plus Case - Black
*G.Skill RipJaw 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-10666C8 1333MHz Dual Channel Kit
*Samsung SpinPoint F3 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache - OEM (HD103SJ)
*Akasa AK-CCX-4002HP Venom CPU Cooler (Socket LGA775/LGA1155/LGA1156/LGA1366/AM2/AM3)
I'll possibly add another GTX560 in a month or two.
Anything glaringly wrong with the above? I've only looked www.overclockers.co.uk for prices and at the moment it sits at £887.76
Any suggestions or tips would be appreciatted![:)]( ":)")

You won't need a 1000 watt power supply, even for a GTX 560 SLI system, even if you overclock the sh!t out of it.
Based on this: http://guru3d.com/article/geforce-gtx-560-ti-sli-review... which uses a more power hungry system than the one you will run, I would recommend a 650W PSU.
NZXT Hale90 650W 80Plus Gold Modular £100

You even save roughly £40.
