Can't find anything wrong with your spec, seems spot on.

Only thing I'd ask is, are you going to Overclock since you've taken the i5 2500k? If you're not, you don't really need the titan fenrir fan since it's absolutely massive.

The chosen spec will play any game on ultra specs that is currently released.

You don't mention if you plan to overclock, but you have alot of overclocking specific gear in their. If you don't plan to overclock drop the 'k' to the standard 2500, drop the cooling to the tripple copper heatpipe.

Another slight problem might be that your power supply is too big for your setup as you have it, but wont have enough headroom to add another 580 in SLI, so im not sure where you are going with that. If you don't plan to add a 2nd GPU then drop the the 650w one. However if you plan on adding a 2nd 580 then you need a 1000w supply

whats overclocking??
why would i need a 2nd graphics card? that'd be too expensive too, so it'd be better to stick with 1 graphics card right

£1200 including vat and delivery is my budget

how about i7 with gtx 580, drop the cooler to tripple copper heatpipe, and drop the power supply to 750?

Sounds like a good idea.
Now if you don't know what overclocking is, then I assume you won't be doing it.
So pick a processor without the k at the end, for example, i7 2600 and not the 2600k. Only difference is that you can overclock it more.
