New rig, need some help deciding on parts.
Okay so my budget is about £500-700.
I'm planning to get this at the moment. Case - PSU - Corsair 550VX Motherboard - Asus P8Z68-V CPU - Intel i5 2500K CPU Cooler - Be Quiet! Dark Rock Advanced BK014 CPU Cooler Graphics card - Nvidia GeForce 9600GT. RAM - Corsair Vengeance 4GB DDR3 I'm using some old parts from my current rig, so I'll upgrade the graphics card later on when I have some dough. Anyway, I need some recommendations for a case. Preferable up to £50 budget for the case. And some recommendations for a new graphics card which I could spend up to £120-£140 max. Thanks in advance.

Switch to an i5-2400. (+- +25GBP)
Get an Antec 200/300 for the case. (50GBP) Try to get a GTX560 Ti for the GPU. Preferably the MSI Twin frozr II one if your budget allows it.

Stock performance isn't that different and 500-700GBP isn't that much either.
Saving a bit there should give you the extra bit of money to get the GTX560 Ti without going over your budget too much.
