@OP,

I'm not familiar with "Scan" is this a Brick & Mortar retailer in the UK? I just want to make sure you're going to get good prices. As far as I know retailers around the world haven't competed with sites like newegg and tigerdirect for a long while even after factoring in shipping costs.

I'm more than happy to help you out regardless of where you shop but I just want to make sure you're aware of these and are getting good deals on your parts. I will take a look at some parts and see what suggestions I can come up with for you.

First and foremost I will say if you want quad core you that means you want nothing to do with AMDs current offerings. So we already know you will need an Intel Mobo and Processor, which helps narrow our choices quite a bit~

edit:

Also it would be nice to know if you want SLI to start with, if you want to go SLI down the road with this rig, or if you just want to stick with one card. Given your budget we can go either way provided the place you shop has competitive prices.



To Each Man, Responsibility
