Lucky for me i didn't pay for the cpu, the case, the motherboard or the power supply. It was a wedding gift from the father in law. But if i include all that and what i paid for the other stuff I'd say around 800GBP/1,300USD.

I was only thinking about a cooling system (so paranoid about frying another CPU and motherboard), graphics card, new ram, and possibly a better PSU and a case with better ventilation. If I do decide to buy a new case, I'll probably go full-tower just because I don't like how cramped the cords are in my mid-tower.

Probably won't cost that much, I just hope the screwholes aren't any different for a full-tower case, I'm not buying a new motherboard just for a bigger case.

To be honest, if you get an i7 you get a pretty decent sized Intel stock fan with it which works as well as any fancy cooling. Maybe 1 or 2 degrees difference, which wont hurt. Water cooling can be a pain to set up, but you could get the cheaper looped water cooling system which just cycles the liquid around in an air tight tube over the heat-sink and back to the cooling chamber.

Mushkin DDR3 is very reliable and very affordable to be honest, i got 16GB for 160GPB. And it makes a huge difference to the speed things open.

If you do get a high end GPU then you'll need at least 750W PSU to run it without worries of burning things out or cut outs. Mine is dangerously low atm, so i need to upgrade asap really.

Want the ultimate vented pc case?
