I know im knew to this forum but could use some help,

I have a budget of 900 quid including a monitor willing to push to 950 with monitor if i have to not much or for the best but that's what i have :)

basically ill be using this computer for photo and video editing mainly, for programs such as "photoshop, illustrator, after effects, avid media composer, 3ds max, maya and others of the same specs" i belive these are the most powered of the applications ill be using but you get my drift.

i eventually wanna be running a two screen set up but can only afford the one right now so i need that considered in the graphics card.

i do no a bit about computers such as building them however haven't built a custom computer for my self with anything bigger than 128 mb ram ^_^ "college :P", basically i have the knowledge to build one if anyone can recomend parts and a site :D

i only ask really is cause i have been out of the game for a while and not to sure on what the best parts are to buy for the style of computer i want any help or additional notes needs i will add

and yes i have had a quite long look around for some stuff and done some research and i am not actaully buying this computer until jan 10th "payday :D"

thanks in advance :D

yeah im not bothered about the store/site as long as it is in uk or can get to the uk for a cheapish price :D mainly bothered in the comp not the where :D

I recommend scan, they're generally cheaper than ebuyer and dabs, aria and overclockers are good too but I'd go for scan as their customer service is second to none and the prices are good.
 
I'll beat you to it :P

i5-760 - £140
P7P55-M - £90
2 x 2GB DDR3 1600MHz CL9 - £45
Gigabyte GTX460 1GB OC - £140
Corsair VX550W - £65
Gelid Tranquillo - £25
NZXT beta Evo - £35
SpinPoint F3 1TB - £40
SATA DVD RW w/Lightscribe - £15
23.6" Monitor 1920 x 1080 HKC - £130

Grand Total: £725

EDIT: Seeing as you're well under budget, upgrade to this £70 PSU, I should have put it in the first place, it's just as high quality but modular too, so cable management will be much easier, the case has good cable management anyway though.
