Get the case, PSU, and maybe HDD. It seems £400 is somewhere around $530 or so.

You can't put US prices in a UK build,the rig you posted in UK prices is 420 GBP which is already over his budget,not to mention a decent case/psu

Off the budget but i think it is worth the save to get that 470, an awesome performer for 1080p.
