Selected a bigger SSD/Win8.1 and GTX970


OcUK can build a system but the build costs start at £60 and can rise over £100+ depending on the system.
 
Hi thanks for the help iv chosen what you said and changed the warranty to this OcUK Silver Extended Warranty (Standard System) - 5 Year (24 Month C&R + 36 Month Labour + 2 Year Security)

Also will the 550w psu be enough for this build
 
Yes, PSU is fine.

It is a high quality Superflower unit.

Besides the intel CPU uses less power than AMD (even with an OC maybe).

If you wanted to go SLI you would need a bigger one.
 
Have placed my order and gave the sales team a quick call to increase the psu to 650w and added 2 extra 200m case fans which was easy to do and took payment for the extra stuff over the phone cant wait to get it.:)
