Well this is what I ended up with ... I'll use it for graphics/video editing and gaming, and a certain amount of future proofing as I tend to replace the entire PC every 3 years ...

Are there any glaring errors or mismatches?

As I've chosen a 2 PORT USB 3.0 INTERNAL PCI EXPRESS CARD will I be sacrificing all my USB 2 ports or will there be some (the ones the case details) still there ... I have both a USB 3 WIFI adapter and a 2TB External HDD hence the choice ...

Thats a nice looking build there the only thing i would suggest you upgrade is the second HDD to a caviar black if you can spare the extra £'s.
