Gaming Pc Build

[cptamsterdam]

This is probably the wrong place to post this, but I would like some help on choosing components for my first gaming pc. My budget is £700 which is roughly $1000. I want to get the Bitfenix colossus venom green window edition as my case as I really like it. I will be going with Intel and NVidia. I will be getting a friend to overclock it for me.

If you can make some suggestions I would be very grateful.

Also I know that I forgot to mention that I would like a green and black theme if possible :)
