Can any folks help me, got £600 to play with, dont need a new case, need a new PSU, mobo, cpu, ram and SSD though for my machine. Ive got GFX and screen already and will be picking up a case separately.

Unsure what the best combo of parts is these days with the ivybridge out etc!
 
Is this for a gaming build?

Do you have a HDD for storage?

1 x Intel Core i5-3570K 3.40GHz (Ivybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor (77W) - Retail £184.99
1 x Gigabyte Z77X-D3H Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard £112.99
1 x Samsung 128GB SSD 830 Desktop Series SATA 6Gb/s KIT with Norton Ghost - (MZ-7PC128D/EU) £89.99

1 x Alpenföhn Matterhorn Pure Edition CPU Cooler (Socket LGA2011/1366/1155/1156/775/ AMD AM3/AM3+/AM2/AM2+/FM1) £27.59
Total : £553.54 (includes shipping : £10.00).



• Motherboard has SLI+Crossfire support
• PSU is made by Seasonic and is modular
• Fast RAM at a good price.
• Nice aftermarket cooler.
 
Yeh I've got a storage HDD already, just wanting an SSD for boot/app purposes! Yes it'll be for some gaming aye!

The machine wont be for overclocking though so a retail HSF should be fine! The case I eventually plump for will have ample cooling :)
Are there any 16GB RAM options?
 
Then its £525 (but you get free delivery also, so its cheaper still) without the extra heatsink.



Or if you also don't care about dual GFX setups either,

Can I get 16GB RAM and/or better CPU with the spare? I've got £600 to spend (could poss nudge a bit more if its a big difference!)
 
 
Anyone recommend a replacement PSU?

Would the Xigmatek Centauro 600W '80 Plus Bronze' Modular Power Supply be a good alternative which is on This Week Only?

Stick to a good make, made by a good OEM,
