If you want a window, grab a saw and cut a hole in a cheap case. It will still be better than any CIT POS

No point getting a window unless its double-glazed. Don't want none of that room heat getting through the single window onto ya parts.

You guys know best, thanks for the information as I am still learning. Are you guys happy with the build now? Will every component work with each other ?

I'd probably dish out the extra tenner or so for the 550w model of that PSU otherwise you'll have to use Molex adaptors for the GPU power.

First of all I know that I am making this forum topic too long, (every other 1 I'v seen has a page or two). I apologize that I am keeping on asking for help when you guys have generously spent your time and knowledge giving me great build. But I am just learning so much and it's such a great community.

Anyway back to topic, I have managed too increase my budget to 570GBP max (ideally spend 550). I was just wondering would it be wise to upgrade my cpu to a Intel Core i5-4690K?

The performance increase would be minimal.

Id spend the extra money on a SSD and maybe a better case/PSU

Wouldn't there be a noticeable performance difference if overclock though ? I would also probably want to overclock sometime in the future too.

It all depends how much of an overclock you can get out of it.

Get the right cooler and you should be able to get a nice overclock.

But it doesn't just depend on the cooler, some chips overclock better then others even if there the same model so you might get lucky or you might not.

But yes with a good overclock it can make a noticeable difference. 5-10Fps difference sometimes more..
