    Yup, that'll all work together. Looks like a nice build to me. :)

    You don't have a copy of Windows in there though, don't know if you already have one.

    Actually, I'd swap in this motherboard, for the simple reason that it has a digital output. VGA looks awful. :P

    Thanks. Went with the motherboard you suggested. Its great that the site uses paypal. Entering my address was a bit weird though! The house number came up after the street name??

    Also how long does delivery normally take?

    Well, if your parents are the type to use CDs, you can pick one up from Amazon or something. If not, then you probably only need it to install Windows, which you can do from a USB stick (and it's faster this way too).

    It's not listed on the HWVS spec, but the case has a 5.25 bay, so it'll fit the drive fine.

    Perfect, thanks. Emailed them the other day about forgetting to include the dvd drive and they said just send them the artical number and they would include it in the order. Just awaiting to hear back! Taking there time in fairness to get back to me so might ring tomorrow
