If your going to do that, your going to need a different case. That case does not allow for a high end graphics card.

That means you can spend less on a power supply [sfx ones are a bit pricey] and get a full normal atx one and spend the rest on a GPU, case and RAM

Let us know your budget and we might be able to help.

The case is terrible, there's absolutely no point even trying to re-use it IMHO.

Your basically going to be paying for the i5, RAM, HDD, and probably mobo(which will be pretty poo) to be re-used, which would only cost you like £215 new for those 4 components anyway.
