Build 1      http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/dXNLFT

 

Build 2     http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/NzRNxr

 

Both build include 240GB SSD, 2TB HDD and a ODD.
both are based on a red/black theme as pc need to look good too  ;) 

Personally i would save beg and steel an extra £60- £100 and pick build 1 with an extra graphics card and some extra/replacement case fans for better cooling. but these is not reason this can't be done at a later date.  :)
