all together its about £220 inc VAT (17.5%), I need to know a few things though,

One:Is 450w Psu going to be enough?

Two:What kind of cooling will I need?

Three: Will the graphics card be able to support 50" tv with a DVI To HDMI cable connecting it?

Don't worry about DVD drive I already have one.
Cooling...stock should be fine

450w will be fine, that graphics card won't run overly powerful and neither should the CPU

and while i can't say for sure...it should support the TV as long as its got the proper connections
Do you reckon the system will be quiet though?
well, i don't think it will be particularly loud, although the stock PSU might be


Quiet PC's are overrated anyway, what's a PC if you can't hear it...
Because when I'm watching movies and things I don't really wana hear it breathing away lol
MicroATX motherboard? You sure you want that?

Also, where you planning on buying the parts from?
http://www.microdirect.co.uk/

What's wrong with a MicroATX mobo? I don't have alot of money only £250
I'm pretty sure they're smaller in size, and a lot of cases don't support them..
Also, have you bought from that site before? I looked on there when building mine, looked fishy, and anyway, £16 for a case AND PSU sounds a little too good to be true. My case alone was cheap, and that was about £18.

I would recommend hugely that you use http://www.ebuyer.com. Amazing site, great service, great prices. Check it out.
I was looking at a Atx mobo on ebuyer. Also microdirect have alot of members and alot of them give reviews on the product.
