No OS but you can use the trial I hinted at earlier. Please note the OEM CPU has no cooler (you don't need it anyway) and a shorter warranty. RAM is much faster and the GPU is much much better. Case will happily take the H100 and if you fancy modding you can cut in a window easy enough.

Case is a personal preference fella. Most of the budget cases won't fit the H100 which is why I spec'd the GX700 as it does.

The refurb'd H100 offers great cooling for the price, as far as CLCs are concerned I'd go with the H100 or not bother at all. Not that the refurb'd H80 is bad for the price but paying the little extra for the H100 makes sense so long as you get a chassis that can fit it in budget

You could change one of the drives to a SSD.

Also bare in mind you may want to order the cooler separately as these aren't due for a while yet, but you will have to pay postage twice.

minieggman · 1 Jul 2013 at 20:41

as i say i got to save for a month or so

minieggman · 1 Jul 2013 at 20:42

but i have heard pre ordering them is best because everyone is wanting one

750W is OTT as the mobo doesn't do dual GPUs properly. A semi modular unit would be wise too.

Squeezed in an SSD and the case is also great with sound proofing to boot. Works out cheaper than your spec too but check back nearer the time of purchasing as prices and offers do change
