noted ta :)

Any good links to see what the difference is between the new AMD cards and the "old" 7*** series? i.e. what 7*** card equates to the new AMD offerings?

Essentially

7870 ~ 270x
7970 ~ 280x

There was a UD5 board in B-grade for a decent price the other day, not sure if it is still there. If you can stretch to a 280x with a decent cooler, you can really take advantage by clocking the socks off it!

She wants an 8 core cpu, blu ray drive, ssd and graphics card that will let her play BF4. THose were min requirements. The rest were "would be nice" options :p
 
I'll be overclocking the cpu so what sort of PSU would suffice. She won't be going dual GFX setups. I thought the 600w would be fine even with a decent amount of volts going through the cpu.

Well the 4670k is just as good, if not better for gaming than the 8320, its more expensive, yes.. but performance wise comparible/better..

Well, you've picked a pretty rubbish blu-ray drive, you atleast want a 15x retail one (itll come with software if its retail). The price of them is horrific, £70+.. So if she REALLY NEEDS one you'll have to fork out, otherwise, don't bother waste of money..

The 270X won't handle BF4 very well.. You need a 280X really.
 
If you had to have a blu-ray drive:
