Micro ATX please, case (in there), color (preferably white please) This is my current build, http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/BjMjkL

 

Budget Around £800 if you're american please don't convert if as the prices are so much more expensive here so say the figure in dollars and it's probably the same or close in pounds.

Have you already purchased the parts? Keep in mind, there are no black/white mATX boards.

 

I opt'd for a Z87 board since it's the one that will match your white color scheme the best, and I swapped out the V300 which has been a terrible SSD ever since Kingston swapped out the NAND chips for cheap garbage.

Thanks, yeah I agree but it'll do very little just booting windows to be honest. Also is there a power supply that you know of that is white?

The v300 is still an inferior ssd, if the money really matters, then check out an adata sp600/620 as its only like a dollar or two more than a v300.

Ocz, nzxt, and fractal have white psus, but none are priced particularly well.
