I'm looking to spend around £700 but less if possible, yeah SLI would be an option I would consider for a small cost increase.

I will swap the GPU, really just picked the dearest one!
 
What advantage would I get by having the ability to run an SLI setup later on? Its just as the motherboard is an extra £60 roughly I think I could make a saving there.
