Lol, don't know how I missed the optical drives section....I'm getting oldIf it fits in the scout case then go for Azbec's case/PSU combo so you can get the 7870 instead of the 7850. Well worth it.
2cm is quite a small gap
And as for that old chestnut about mixing Nvidea and AMD its a bit of an internet myth imo, but even if there were some truth in it AMD processors have been so behind the pace in recent years its a non argument. Bottom line pick the best CPU and the best GPU you can afford and it will work just fine.
The 1TB hard drive is needed? This thread moves fucking quickly i cba to read through it.If joe isnt planning on mass storage, downloading or any of that crap. It really isnt needed and a 500gb would be ok. That would save some money.

I have bout 3TB of storrage ( 2x1TB internal and one 750GB external ) and it's about 65% full.
