There we go guys my possible spec when payday rolls around! Just like some feedback if you guys don't mind.
Also will the dual fan for the processor cooling affect the cooling of the rest of the case, as you can see I have selected extra fans (The more the better when it comes to cooling imo) but any PC pros comments would be appreciated :)

Any reason for the 8 core AMD? They are generally not that advisable because they are not as fast as intel and like to run fairly hot. Plenty of other things I would change too. perhaps you could post a budget and a list of intended uses and we can advise you more specifically.

Max budget is around £1100 and basically extreme gaming. Thanks guys

Edit: I am going for the Samsung SSD not the Kingston. That is a miss-click
