Nah never seen it mate. So if I bought the g1 version I'd get the psu and paragon stuff as freebies? That's tempting but I really like the founders skin on the got haha

I don't need the paste? Is there some included?

Also which is the better mobo between the asus and the gigabyte one. Giga looks much nice though. What's your thoughts stupid, on taking the Giggabyte and getting the white led ram?

If you're looking at replacing the rig in your signature, just upgrade the GPU. You won't see much of a benefit from the CPU upgrade.

Barron, i'm in the same boat as you buddy. Im planning my order and its very close to yours.

I see your going with the Asus Maximus VIII Hero after many hours this morning i was close to picking that but have finally gone with the Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 7 Intel Z170. I think it has slightly better reviews and is the same price.

Also you have gone for the Corsair Dominator Platinum at £119.99. The Corsair
Vengeance LPX 16GB is the same but is £30 cheaper. Have a look at that buddy.

To be honest your setup looks great. I wish i had saved myself the many hours of reading reviews etc and just picked yours

The AIO has paste already applied to its base.

The Giga board is fantastic - https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18730403 - my thread I made about it.

There is a white soft glow from those Corsair sticks you selected.

Theres a founder edition in the deal and thats the one that comes with the 750W gold PSU, just ordered it myself.

It's a new rig for streaming mate but also my gf has got into playing some p,c games so we now need two pcs. Thanks for the advice though!

Cheers mate great review by the way!

I like the look of the 1070 FE but do I need to use the forum link to get the free psu? Never used these deals before that's all

 

[stulid]

It is just added to the order in the warehouse when you buy it I think.

You just need to buy one of those two Gigabyte cards.

Just add one of those two cards to your basket and it will be added as a free gift automatically

No idea how good the Gigabyte Bronze psu is though, so it can either be sold or kept as a spare.
