Alright guys, just thought I'd update on the latest decisions I'm facing.

Corsair Carbide 500R (£95) vs CM Storm (£70) vs CM 690 III (£80 or £90 with Seidon 120v CPU cooler) vs Corsair Carbide 300R (£60)

Also I'm not sure if the monitor I've selected will suffice; anyone know alternatives up to the value of £150?

Thank you all for your help so far!

Samsung SH-224DB 24X Internal DVD Writer with SATA - Retail Boxed

Kingston 120GB HyperX 3K SSD 2.5" SATA-III Read = 555MB/s, Write = 510MB/s

Corsair 750W CXM Builder Modular 80+ Bronze PSU

CM Storm by Cooler Master Skorpion Mouse Bungee

Steelseries Apex [RAW] Gaming Keyboard

Steelseries Sensei [RAW] Gaming Mouse - Gloss Black

Acer G246HLB 24" LED LCD HDMI Monitor

Hi guys, Need your advice on a new rig which I am planning on purchasing. I pre-purchased the CPU watercooler as it was massively on sale: Corsair Hydro H100 Extreme. I thought hard about Intel processors / builds vs. AMD and decided to go for AMD considering my budget.

Acer Aspire V3-571 Very good laptop for around 350-600 depending on the processor/ram you want.
