well, like i say, for the processor, im pretty set on the E8400 which i will be getting for £77. I have a thermalright ultra 120 on its way. As for motherboard and gfx, I was thinking about a xfire motherboard, and a 5770 with the option of xfire in the future. What do you think? The only thing im totally unsure of realy, is the case. I want something pretty cheap, but with good cable management.
