Thanks. yeah I will phone and not order it off the site but it will be from here. Ordered my last 2 pc from another site which is well known but both been rubbish.

I was going to change the graphics card to Palit Jetstream 1070 which is out of stock but I phone to order then they might order it for me. I will be at some point buying a external bluray drive but for now I can hold off even if the windows 10 is on DVD as its already installed. If I have to format it in first year then there be something wrong with it. :P

Definitely buying this PC in next week. I still don't no if I should go with the 1080 or 1070 just incase. Like I said I don't want to hold back on anything on this machine just to save an extra couple of quid like I done in past.

OCUK Gerforce GTX 1070 Founders edition 8GB
OCUK Gerforce GTX 1080 Founders edition 8GB This one is already in stock

The Gigabyte G1 is in stock and would be a much better option than the founders edition.

What monitor are you going to be gaming on ?

I have and using at the moment my TV which is a sony bravia 32" kdl32EX703. But I do have a Asus vg27he monitor at 144hz. Only problem with that is the colours not right no matter what setting I use and too pixelated So that why I gone back to my 32" TV as a lot better then my monitor.

I will be at some point early next year buying a new monitor either 1440p or 4k but if I go with a 1070 I will be getting a 1440p.
 
Hi whats the KFA2 Geforce GTX 1080 like?. Like I say I don't mind paying price or even I don't use all the power of the card at first as long as its good.

I no my last 2 PC o have had I had to fit the card it self my self from new. Is it the same here. If so is it easy to fir in the case on this PC. I no my Asus strix 970gtx was really long and could just fit in due to hard drive case.

I think you'll be happy with that as it is. OCUK will have tested the cooler to be more than enough so i wouldn't worry about it. Its also black so should look pretty sweet.

Remember If you think i've been helpful please click the link in my sig before your purchase as i get a small kickback. If you don't then no worries, up to you.

Thanks for reply. Sorry I am ordering over phone when I order or I would have.

I no 1TB is a lot but you think I should get a 2TB or will 1TB plus 256GB ssd be enough.
 
Is there any problems with skylark CPU. I didn't no at the time but I no now that a lot of Ivy bridge had a couple of problems with it after I got it. It like you say 3rd gen to 6th gen not a big leap but I cant see waiting one more gen will gain that much compared to price.
 
Thanks. I think I will go with the KFA2 as its on the options on the page im getting it from. I don't want to drift away from that page if you no what I mean.

But got till this Thursday/weekend to decided but looks like the KFA2.

Just seen a review on the KFA2 they say out of the box and not oced runs less then other cards in 1080 series.?.

The one reason i don't want to choose anything else other then on the page on that pc as I no that them cards will or should fit in the PC. If I choose a different card what not in that list and the card is too big then it be my fault. If you no what I mean.

Last 2 pc I have bought I had to fit the card it self. Only reason is to be more safer when in the post.
 
Even though it the last one you recommended I have decided to go with the Palit Jetstream 1080. Apart from the EVGA the Palit Jetstream seems better out of the box the KFA2 plus as seen as its a see threw case you can not change the red LED on the KFA2 card. Fans always on too even on idle.

Ordering this Weekend hopefully Thursday.

Final spec?. lol

hehe no worries. Ordering this weekend cant wait. 1st time buying from OC too but anything probably better then the last site I ordered from.

In first week the fan stopped working on top of the case. I phoned up and all I got back was. Why you need 2 fans on case in first place. I got the fan working again but asking why I need extra fans was a stupid reply and question.
