Ok guys ill get straight to the point.
I want a PC with
Processor - i5 3500k
GPU - AMD 7950
Motherboard - No idea.
Case - No idea
Hard Drive - 1TB 7,200 RPM
- SSD 120GB
CPU cooler - Water cooling kit

I also want the computer to be able to have onboard graphics from the CPU incase any faults occur on my gpu and I have to remove it from my system. I also want the case to have lots of air flow and space for SLI/CFX in the future.

Can you guys recommend a case and motheroard for the above please :)?

If you're definitely getting the AMD 7950 graphics card you could downgrade to the P8Z77-V LX motherboard,but get at least the 650W PSU If planning on adding another 7950 in crossfire.

The metal tray will fit in the hdd bay, you just need to screw the SSD in the metal tray. Are you building the pc or buying it from PCS?

Yer I had a look at that but again, this is my first build so I dont know what cables would go where.
I see the 2 USB 3.0 ports aren't where they normally , there on one of the bays so where would I need to plug it into for it to operate.


edit : the motherboard most likely but would I have the slots :/? Is it a PCI extension?

It goes into the motherboard, the instructions manual of the motherboard you have chosen will give you an indication of the USB 3.0 connector. If you are spending a significant amount of money in your gaming rig I'd consider a pre-built system.
