Well, after literally days of research, I have finally done my ideas for the 4 computers I will be building.
3 of these are for gaming, and the last is a simple multimedia computer.
Some parts I already have, and are perfectly fine to be reused, so it saves me money.

So, I will list them separately, starting with the multimedia pc

CPU: Pentium anniversary K edition
CPU Cooler: Stock (No need for overclocking)
GPU: MSI HD 7700
RAM: Corsair vengeance 8gb green
PSU: Superflower Golden Green HX 550w
Case: NZXT H440 (Black / Green)
Motherboard: ASUS Z97-A
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB
SSD: Crucial MX100 128GB
OS: Windows 8.1

Gaming PC 1:

CPU: Core I-7 4770k
CPU Cooler: Rajintek AIO Watercooled (Blue dye)
GPU: Zotac GTX 770 x2 SLI
RAM: Corsair vengeance 16gb
PSU: Superflower Leadex Gold 750W
Case: NZXT H440 (Black / Blue)
Motherboard: Asrock Z97 extreme6
HDD: 2x 2TB WD Green
SSD: Crucial MX100 128GB
OS: Windows 7

Gaming PC 2:

CPU: I-7 4770k
CPU Cooler: Rajintek AIO Watercooled (With Mayhem Orange Dye)
GPU: Zotac GTX 770
PSU: Superflower Leadex Gold 750w
RAM: 16gb corsair vengeance
Case: NZXT H440 (Black / Orange)
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z97 SOC Force
HDD: 2TB WD Green
SSD: Crucial MX100 128GB
OS: Windows 8.1

Gaming PC 3:

CPU: I-7 4790K
CPU Cooler: Rajintek AIO Water cooled (Red dye)
GPU: MSI GTX 980
RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro red 16gb
PSU: Superflower Leadex Gold 1000w
Case: NZXT H440 (Black / Red)
HDD: 2TB WD Green x2
SSD: Crucial MX100 128GB
OS: Windows 8.1

All of this comes to about £4500 including peripherals.

Enjoy

I'm confused, why do you need so many computers! :p

Also, your SSD's could be better, switch them for MX100's, and your PSU's are overkill, and switch the HDD's to faster, non-eco drives.
You're also buying 770's, why?

SSDs will be changes! Thanks for the heads up
PSUs I like being overkill, they're fine.
HDDs are greens because they match the current drives.
Not buying 770s already have them, just recycling the,.
 
I need to ask as well, why 4 PC's?!

Also, wouldn't the multi-media PC be better off in a smaller case? I'm guessing its going to get plugged into the TV and such, the H440 is a very nice case, but it is rather large.
 
For a media PC - an AMD APU is more than enough.

Also,is there a reason for three gaming PCs??

Unless it is for three members of your family,surely it is worth just building one decent one and then perhaps another smaller one if you go to LANs very much??

Even then you can build quite a decent mATX or mini-ITX based gaming rig,negating the need for two gaming PCs.

Heh, just thought I should clear some things up.
Kids maybe a bit too early for me, since I am 14 ;)
4 computers are not all for me, 4 computers == 3 people. (2 are for me) :)

If you need to know who these are for, the web browser is for a grandad, who surprisingly said he wasn't going to game on it, though I stuck an 7700 in since it doesn't hurt to be there.

The h440 black and blue is for my brother, he doesn't play very demanding games, the most demanding will be most likely war thunder, but it doesn't hurt to be overkill!

That orange pc was a bit too ridiculous for me, xD but I do like it, it might have worked in h440 Orange better in my opinion.
The reason why all PCs are in the same case is because I can colour coordinate the parts. I think the least colour coordinated is the green h440, but he won't be using it much.

The red and orange h440s are mine. The red is for my home, with 2 1440p monitors. The orange will be used for LANs, combined with a Benq 24" 1080p.

Like I said in the original post, some parts I own, so it made more sense to reuse them.

I like big PCs, they aesthetically please me more than smaller PCs.

As awesome as the H440 looks, I really wouldn't recommend it for any kind of LAN. It weights a tonne, thing has loads of steel in it. A seriously heavy case! 380T (it has a handle!!!) or a 250D for lan! Nice and tiny.

"the web browser is for a grandad, who surprisingly said he wasn't going to game on it" Haha, it really that surprising?!
