Wow! That's an extremely high spec computer. The best UK stockists I know of are http://www.overclockers.co.uk/ http://www.microdirect.co.uk/ http://www.advancetec.co.uk/ Overclockers has a huge stock but generally their prices tend to be slightly higher than the other two.
Here are the parts from overclockers UK(to fins the parts go to the link and look for the name that's on this list: Respawn Recovery Kit (able to restart pc from brand new if need to): You only get this with Alienware PC's. The equivalent is an OS Disk 650 Watt ATX 2.0 Power Supply with Active PFC: Akasa Ultra Quiet 650W PowerPlus Active PFC ATX2.0 PSU - Black Nickel (CA-015-AK) NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI Motherboard: Abit Fatal1ty AN9 32X (Socket AM2) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard (MB-103-AB) AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 5000+ Processor w/ HyperTransport and Dual Core Technology: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 5000+ 2.60GHz (Socket AM2) - Retail (CP-172-AM) 4GB DDR2 PC-6400 SDRAM at 800MHz - 4 x 1024MB: GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit (GX22GB6400UDC) (MY-058-GL) x2 1024MB NVIDIA® GeForce™ 7950 GX2: BFG GeForce 7950 GX2 1024MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail (GX-022-BG) 300 GB Serial ATA 1.5Gb/s, 10,000 rpm with 32MB Cache (2 x 150GB): Western Digital Raptor 150GB WD1500ADFD 10,000RPM SATA 16MB Cache - OEM (HD-069-WD) x2 16x Dual Layer DVD±R/W Recorder: Samsung SH-S182D 18x18 DVD±RW ReWriter (Black) (CD-078-SA) Creative Sound Blaster® Audigy™ 4: Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 4 7.1 EAX Sound Card - OEM (SC-037-CL) Extras Logitech® G15 Gaming Keyboard: Logitech G15 Gaming-Grade Illuminated Keyboard - Retail (UK Layout) (KB-077-LG) Logitech® MX™518 Gaming-Grade™ Optical Mouse: Logitech MX518 Gaming-Grade Optical Mouse (KB-060-LG) Creative® 2.1 I-Trigue™ T3330: Creative I-Trigue 2.1 3400 Speakers - Retail (SP-050-CL) I found almost everything on the list, and I changed some things slightly. Like the DVD writer I chose is the fastest in the world, but still only £20, and I couldn't find the exact speakers you were looking for, but I found the model 'above' the ones you were looking for.
I guess the AMD fans are going to flame me, but why are you going with the X2 5000+? The Core 2 Duo E'6400 is about 2.5x less money, and would beat it. To spend that much on hard drives is just (at lost for a different word)... retarded. The Seagates with PRM Technology are only a little bit behind in speed, but the raptors are like 3x the price. Just uneconomical. I honestly don't understand the need for 4GB RAM, unless you're running a server (at which point you should be getting an Intel Woodcrest.) It won't serve any better preformance then 2GB (unless you have a C4D document open that is like 3000x3000, and a PSD open that is just as big or more, Counter Strike: Source, and like 3 other big applications.) Plus, quad-channel? You'd be better off with 2x 1GB. The 7950x2 is just a dumb buy. There really is no point. There is no games that need it right now, and when you would need such a card to play a game (which will be like 3 years?), then you could just simply upgrade then and save money...
thanks for ya help guys cheers i am grateful for it Merged Post: p.s special thanks to jammie for all the find you done and johnAnnoucingConroe lets say i can aford it cheers
:| in association wiht the first post dam that will be one extremely good computer also i get all my parts from www.dabs.com

It's really up to you what case you get. Most of the ones Overclockers UK stock (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Cases.html) are pretty decent. Just stay away from the OcUK Value and OriginAE cases.
Um, so if not the X6800, then the E6700 or E6600. Eitherway, they are the same pricerange as the +5000 and rape it.
