Hi everyone, i have decided to slowly but surely build a new rig. this rig will have:

Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD3R Motherboard £130
i7 920 overclocking it to 3.2ghz £200
G.Skill Ripjaws PC3 12800 6GB Memory £120
GTX 275 SLI £300
Corsair HX850 PSU £150
Coolermaster HAF 932 £120

This build will take me until September but may have upgraded a bit more by then as prices will drop hopefully!
Overall price will be £1020

What do you guys think?

I would get these parts instead: Intel core I7 860 2.8 @3.5, CORSAIR DOMINATOR 8GB, ASUS P7P55D-E Premium LGA 1156 motherboard. The graphic card is up to you. Can't tell how the prices match up but if you look at my specs on my new build, it's pretty fast.
