The RAM mentioned earlier has gone up by around £10, so included a different set.

Also the PSU above maybe be great for a single GFX card, but for a pair you need around 750watt.

Thanks for your help stulid

some things:
For RAM he is thinking about getting 16GB instead of 8GB. Is that possible in the current price range?

Also, that PSU is out of stock. Is this a good one?

Can you give me an NVIDIA equivalent of that GPU so I give him both possibilities?

Thanks :)
 
That PSU is good (probably the same inside as the Antec which is also made by Seasonic)


With 16GB of RAM your friend is going to have to make some sacrifices,

No SLI support with the D3HP as mentioned earlier in the thread.
 
He doesn't like AMD.

He was thinking about getting the i5 instead, but what I suggested to him was to save up a bit more and get the i7 which he really wants, which will be better for future proofing as much as possible. (he will not change anything in the pc for around 5-6 years except maybe GFX and added RAM)
