Do you need a copy of Windows? Peripherals?

mine was similar.. retail fan is sufficient since you a)dont care about overlocking b) dont care about flashy stuff. If you want head over to OCAU look through their classifieds cheap 7950's and 7970's will be coming up there soon, got my last 2 GPU's from there never had a single issue. money you save could go towards a Evo 840 SSD for windows and your games.. that would probably be the next thing i would work towards

eBay is boss for that. Other day saw a 7850 OC for £26 LEGIT (like the guy wasn't trying to trick you). Second hand for some parts can save you a lot.
