To all i would appreciate your advice,i have ordered these parts so far.

Psu Corsair VX 550W CMPSU-550VX £65.82 tax and postage

Gpu msi 4850, £128.06 incl tax and postage

Cpu intel 8400 . £118.50 incl tax and postage

Western Digital Caviar SE16 640GB SATA2 £55.95 incl tax and delivery

Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L Intel P35 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard £68.14 incl tax and delivery

£436.47 total so far

so what pc case would go well with this motherboard i mean there are cases that seem to have a number of things like how many usb ports it has etc and i am clueless also my max budget for a case is £70 tops and i might be overclocking a bit and also would Corsair 4GB (2x2GB) PC6400 Dual Channel DDR2 TWIN2X4096-6400C5 XMS-2-6400 TwinX (6205653708691) work with this motherboard as i have looked on gigabytes website and it did not have it listed.

This is my first time to ever build a pc.

Thanks in advance.

Go with a cooler master 690 imo, it may be a few bucks more than you would like but it's a nice case.
