    Got most of the stuff from LandmarkPC, except for the Monitor and Ram, which I got from Take2! And Yes, that's INCLUDING VAT!

    The Case is awesome, has a 140mm blue LED Front intake, and a 140mm top exhaust, and a 120mm back exhaust. The top can accommodate another 140/120mm, and the Side panel can take another two 140/120/90/80 mm fans.
    I think there's another mount on the bottom of the chassis, but its partially blocked by the hard drive cage. CM say in the manual that you can either use that as an area for a radiator, Or above the Top fans, which is the preferred location.
    No worries about the late reply, hope you had a good time over the festive season! I bought most of my stuff from Sybaritic as we just wnated to pay for the stuff one time and I think I got a pretty good deal, mine was 11.8K incl. VAT.

    My case also has a front built in fan w/ blue LEDs, sadly the power connectors for the fans were used up by my GTX 460 They are the long 3 pins lugs, fairly thick. And the tinier power connector that goes on the motherboard was too short to reach it, so my front stays unlit. Woe, woe, woe! The only spare power connectors are the sata power cables. Is there a converter for this to the 3 pin, to the 2 pin of the fans? It's not too important as I haven't OCed my rig and I was on the PC on one of the hottest days here when it reached 36C! And it worked perfectly! Cheers.

    Purchased MOST this setup April 2010

    CPU: Intel Core i5 750
    RAM: 4GB DDR3 1333 (2x 2GB) Kingston
    GPU: Powercolor AMD Radeon HD 5770 GB
    MB: Asus P7P55 LX
    Case: Coolermaster 310 Elite - Orange Trim
    PSU: Gigabyte ODIN 585W
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
    HDD: 320GB SATA2, 250GB SATA2, 500GB External USB 2.0 (came from old rig)

    Sound: Logitech G51
    Keyboard & Mouse: Microsoft Wireless Desktop 5000
    Screen: Samsung 226BW LCD (bought in 2007)

    What surprises me is almost none of my components prices have dropped over the last 10 months. My screen is from 2007 so that makes sense that there is a lot better but when it comes to entry level systems I don't see much better a price.

    Towards the middle of this year I would probably need to look at a new entry level graphics card, an some more ram toward the end. Otherwise I think this CPU will hold its own for some time to come.

    Hey, check out http://www.sybaritic.co.za I have very similar parts to you and I paid 11.8K. Note, this was including a screen (24", full 1080p) and keyboard and mouse and mouse pad.
