keep in mind if your using a mini case you might need a mini atx mobo. And airflow depends on the case.

I'm planing to use a small case with this build in it (http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/mDmcjX)

Would a bottom 92mm and side 120mm fan be enough airflow for this???

And also what mobo do you suggest I purchase?? Around the £100 mark

Thanks in advance

Given the lack of a case, no fans other than the ones on the cpu & gpu coolers would be necessary.

For Mobo. Asus Z97M-PLUS. However there are many alternatives to choose from that would be good options.

 

Gigabyte GA-Z97MX-Gaming 5 & MSI Z97M Gaming would be good as well! 

 

You need to let us know what case you are using, but in my experience your components will be fine in almost any case with some type of airflow, as long as you are not overclocking.

This is the case that I'm using it's a stripped down really old case!! I think it will look real cool with a modern PC in it!!

I'm planing on having a 92mm fan in the bottom and a 120mm on the side pannel!!

Sadly there is no image.

 

Where is the psu going to be mounted - bottom (with intake from bottom, exhaust rear) or top (with intake from inside case, exhaust rear)?

 

Will there be a non-stock cpu cooler? If so, what model?

Yea that didn't work!! :(

It's a top mounted taking air out, then the other two will be intake.

Stock CPU cooler, possibly a blower GPU farther than an open one as it will be better for temps!

Cooling is likely going to be a bit tough. You will likely need both the bottom and side fans. You may also want to rethink the blower style gpu cooler. Not sure about that, but I think having an after market gpu cooler pushing air up, towards the exhaust might help.
