There are a few expensive bits in there.. I would consider longer warranty.
What OS are you going to use?

I meant the manufacturers warranty on my CPU cooler.
I believe that while they are happy for you to upgrade, if any off your own components (not purchased from them) cause the computer issues then it isn't their problem. I know that overclocking GPU would void the warranty on the GPU.
I want a quiet case. Is that quiet?
RAM the more the better for CS6. If my budget was higher would gone for 64gb with the other selection.
Kingston SSD are not great from what ive been reading. Would prefer a samsung series 8 one ... Maybe i can just order that seperatly and add it later

The storm trooper is not advertised as a quiet case, the antec you selected before is but you are trading off slightly better cooling for lower noise. I had a Kingston SSD and I never experienced an issue, I doubt you can tell the difference between a Samsung or Kingston SSD unless you are benchmarking.

I agree, even if you were benchmarking, from looking at the spec's of the basic samsung drives vs the kingston hyper X K versions, the Kingston drives are faster. On the other hand i think the samsung drives are priced quite well.

You don't need the sabertooth, any motherboard in the configurator should offer similar performance for your intended use. I don't think one brand is more reliable than other in terms of possible faults but if you get it from PCS they will get it sorted for you in no time.

I have Kingston SSD in my 13 month old desktop (gets pretty heavy use) and my laptop (lighter use). Both are fine, no issues and fast as new.
Made a few adjustments and brought the price down to £1434-£1444.
Still stuck on which case to get. You guys did suggest the COOLERMASTER CM STORM ENFORCER.
I have experience with The Coolermaster HAF 922 Case, which I do like a lot. i think investing in some Nocutla fans to replace the ones that come with the case.
Or I can go for the Define R4/ Antec p280
Better yet wait 1-2 weeks more to see if PCS stock the new Corsair A540 http://www.corsair.com/us/pc-cases/...eries-air-540-high-airflow-atx-cube-case.html
