maybe knock the motherboard down to this it ment to get a bios update that'll give support for pci-e3.0(thus ivy), can't say how it compares in terms of features, oc ability etc.

if you can live with 1yr rather than 3yrs warrant then go with oem version of the cpu here

with that £65(£55 from mb, £10 from cpu) you can use to upgrade elsewhere

650w version of the psu? allow you to put in a 2nd 6870 in the future etc

ram this? or similar depending on offer.
