i should get it working soon within a few day
i have to buy a secound cpu to upgrade the bios to take my ivy bridge i7
as its just to be used for like 5 minutets before it goes into stoge the 2nd cpu is a:
Intel Celeron G460 1.8 GHz sandy bridge

specs of computer:
32GB ram (4x 8GB komputerbay ddr3 1333mhz)
intel i7 3770k @ 3.5ghz(will be overclocking it)
1x ocz ssd 128GB for windows
1x 80gb maxtor (for swap file)
1x 2tb Weston digital for files and games
3GB xfx r7950 core
corsair hx1050(1050w)
coolermaster v8 180w cpu fan
total cost around £1,200

do you like the look of it?
 
Which 2TB WD are you going for? Not sure why you're wanting to get a 1050W PSU for a single 7950 either, two 7950s wouldn't even need 1050W, more like 850W for two cards, 650W for one.

Get 1600MHz or 1824MHz RAM too, forget about 1333MHz.

Maybe the money you save on the PSU could be spent on a bigger SSD. OCZ Vertex 4 256GB would be nice!

What case are you getting?
 
As that is a P67 board, you could save money on your CPU by going for an i7 2600K over the 3770K - you wouldn't have to update your BIOS at all if you did that.
 
Oh OK.

So I'd recommend you get a lower wattage PSU, something like a Corsair TX 650 V2, and also get a bigger SSD if you can afford it. Do you already have all the parts?
