    I stand corrected, cheers Cat & Pob

    That N200 looks to be a steal for a shade over £33, kinda wish I'd waited myself now on my new build *harrumph*

    Re: Building new rig

    Finally got all components bought, just waiting for delivery of last few before I start the build.

    Motherboard: MSI Z87 G43
    CPU: Intel i5-4670k
    GPU: Zotac GTX 660Ti Amp Extreme Edition
    Case: Gelid Solutions Darkforce
    PSU: XFX Core 750W
    Cooling: Coolermaster Seidon 120M
    RAM: 2x4Gb Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer 1600Mhz
    HDD: 2 Gb Seagate 7200.14
    SSD: 120Gb Kingston V300
    OS: Windows 8

    May make a review of the build and the case once I've built it.

    I have the Z77 version of that motherboard, and it's been fine for me, however I've since heard bad things about that series (especially with regards to over-clocking). There's a Gigabyte one (Z87-HD3) for £20 that seems to be more solid.
    You could also save money by using a smaller (500-600W) PSU. XFX is a solid brand though (They're just re-branded Seasonic PSU's).
