    Not built a pc in a while. My last one had one of the first i7 chips and 2 gtx260's in sli.
    I'm after building a new one into an old lian li ao5 I modded years ago.
    Pc will primarily be used to gaming and listning to music. A ssd is a must

    Any advice would be apreciated
    Cheers

    Have a search around this Hardware Forum there is loads of previous builds you can have a look at, if you want to buy one now.

    Personally wait a few weeks for the next major releases from Intel and Nvidia

    Nice Corrado.

    Yep 'wait for ivy bridge and kepler' is basically the reply you'll get from everyone atm unless its an urgent build. :)
