Help me with a new PC - £2k

Yes it does support SLI.

It does 8X/8X, the top slot which is 16X with a single card diverts 8 of its lanes to the 2nd slot.

It is those two that you use.

The UD5H has a bit more expansion but nothing important.

That RAM is ok, just more expensive than the others.

DDR3 to DDR4, well obviously its platform specific.
Click to expand...

I just remember when I bought DDR, and a few months later DDR2 was a much bigger deal, is it noteworthy where I should change specs or not really?
 
Thanks for your help so far, just seen OCUK have reduced it this weekend, so may grab one :)

Decided on 4790k and Gigabyte upgrade deal, seemed great If I wanted to upgrade in a few years... So bought that, so so far got those and the case.

Will keep you posted on rest :)

The Avexir golden blitz is a better RAM as its CAS10 vs 11.

Its also more likely to be Samsung double sided than single sided HynixMFR.
