Great, thanks for pointing that out, saved me £70

Something like this right ? Gigabyte GA-H55M-UD2H Intel H55 (Socket 1156) DDR3 microATX Motherboard

And about the cables, i meant from the power supply to all the connectors on the motherboard, and like the sata cables, its really the only part i know ill have trouble with, confusing.

Oh and will it matter that its microatx if the case isnt meant for micro ?

The GPU is on pre-order and the PSU they have no ETA on when you can purchase it.

Changed it around now with some advice from a friend, its total is currently £912, That card i specified up there was on pre order so i scratched it off, i dont mind giving an extra £100 or so for a better gfx card or something, but this one will be just fine for me because as it stands im currently using a 8600GT for most games so whatever card i use would give me a huge difference.

Thanks for all your replies, Also i would only use the gfx card and my sound card/ethernet card which are pci, would i really need a bigger motherboard ?

As it stands its the final build, is there ANY problems, advice or opinions, before i order the parts ? Also, Thanks for all your help.

You only need a 4GB kit. That motherboard is meant for DUAL channel RAM, IE. 2 sticks or 4 sticks of RAM, not 3.

If your getting an i5 750 don't get an H55/H57 chipset motherboard. Get a P55 chipset, those are meant for the i5 750 and i7 8XX CPUs.

You mean the gigabyte GA-P55 ? Right, Changed.

Also changed the memory Corsair XMS3 2x2GB, dang this is more confusing than i thought XD
