Ok should have bought some of my computer parts within the next 2 weeks.

What CPU cooler and power supply should I buy?

Im buying off Amazon.

I am buying the MB/CPU/Power Supply Unit/RAM/HDD.Of course and leads I may need.

I have power cables/sata cables so no need to buy them.

I think maybe this case as it has 4xUSB on front:Maplin > iVent ATX PC Case
Not what I realy want but the 4X USB is a must.

Will let you know when I have ordered my parts and when they arrive will get cracking on building.

I will be providing pictures for you ALL to see.

IF your not overclocking the CPU use the heatsink and fan that comes with the retail CPU. Power supply just get a good brand thats adequate for the needs. Use the psu calculator to check:
eXtreme Power Supply Calculator Lite v2.5

I will be providing pictures for you ALL to see.

These are the parts I ordered for my first self build. I've been running it now for about 6 weeks and it is working well. Most expensive was the Vista OS @ £215, I got the retail full version rather than OEM.
I paid about £60 for an Akasa PSU Don't skimp on this it is false economy and can cause problems if you get a cheap generic PSU.
