Big thank's to all at pcspecialist and you guys on the forum that advised me on my build specs.
PCS MAELSTROM T900 BLACK GAMING CASE
AMD PHENOM II X4 970 (3.50GHz/8MB CACHE/AM3) - BLACK EDITION
ASUS® M5A87: AM3+ PLATFORM, DUAL DDR3,SATA 6.0GB/s, USB 3.0
4GB SAMSUNG DDR3 DUAL-DDR3 1333MHz (2 X 2GB)
1GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 560 Ti - 2 DVI,HDMI,VGA - 3D Vision Ready
750GB WD CAVIAR BLACK WD7502AAEX, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64MB CACHE (7200rpm)
24x DUAL LAYER DVD WRITER ±R/±RW/RAM
INTERNAL 52 IN 1 CARD READER (XD, MS, CF, SD, etc) + 1 x USB 2.0 PORT
CORSAIR 650W TX SERIES (TX650) 80+ ULTRA QUIET PSU
SUPER QUIET 22dBA TRIPLE COPPER HEATPIPE CPU COOLER

It came today and within no time was set up and runing like a dream, looks nice and tidy inside. Tried a couple of games out to give it a little test (Crysis and Metro 2033), yeah i know they are old games but they are also quite demanding.
Didn't even break my new PC into a sweat and maxed both games out to the full, with high settings. To top it off, i was sent an invite for Alpha Beta testing of Battlefield 3 :beta:
I am a happy customer :)

The "Titan" Tripple Copper Heatsink keeps it well cool at basic 30c and so far only up to 34c.
Benchmarked the GPU with fumark and boy that gets the temp up to a stable 84c at an average of 29 FPS

The case and fans keep it well cool, only one gripe is that the 750 Caviar Black drive is pretty noisy when working but fast and apparently reliable.

Battlefield beta testing over now. The GTX560ti worked fine the only issue was their servers often crashed and froze... Looks good though and can't wait to see full release. Here are some better quality pic'c
