Decided to build myself a PC for the sheer fun of it (and because I can't find a pc with the exact spec I want)


So far I have ordered:

Motherboard:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/A88XM-PLUS-Motherboard-Soc...

Processor:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/AMD-AD785KXBJABOX-Edition-...



That's all Ive bought. Need suggestions for a small form factor case, ssd and ram and monitor

Its either going to be on the floor under my desk or on top of my desk.


It's mainly a computer for uni work, autocad and various other CAD packages. I also play the odd game.

Progress so far:




I was going to go for the bitfinex prilogy (spelling?) but the corsair case beside it was cheaper, oozed qualilty and had a side window. Its only slightly taller.

My ram and cd drive comes tomorrow. ( 8gb 2400mhz). I read that the gpu performance on my processor is increased with high bandwidth memory.
