Approximate Purchase Date: 15th of September

Budget Range: £600

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Uni Work, Internet/downloads

Are you buying a monitor: No

Parts to Upgrade: Everything

Do you need to buy OS: No

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Cheapest one, As long as it is safe and can get it in UK

Location: City, State/Region, Country - Scotland

Parts Preferences: I REALLY want the Gtx 660 ti and an i5 3570k

Overclocking: Yes

SLI or Crossfire: No

Your Monitor Resolution: 1920 * 1080

Additional Comments: I don't need Huge amounts of storage or flashy cases, just good airflow and Cold would be an added bonus

Unless you're willing to save another 100 or want to downgrade to an Fx-4100, a 660ti is out of your budget so I chose AMD's 7850. Also there's virtually no difference between the Ivy Bridge and the Sandy Bridge i5s.

Sorry it comes out to 630 but unless you're willing to cut on the Psu you can't get much cheaper.

Seems Ok, Get it down to about £600 using Aria instead of amazon maybe slightly less, however the thing is I play WoW mostly and I heard AMD performs worse than Nvidia

AMD isn't worse then Nvidia but it depends on the price range. The 560ti is slightly behind the 7850 but it should still suffice. The 560ti should definitely be more then enough for WoW. Also the RAM was cheaper on Amazon so I went with that and they didn't have the hard drive at Aria.
