Hey guys, looking for a new system to fit a lonely space.
Building it to run a few very anticipated games for me, at a reasonable pace. BF4, Watchdogs, The Division, Sims 4 etc
My budget went from £900 > £1050 after seeing this:

Would be adding 3tb of space + a KFA2 770.

Is it worth it?

PS, what is the OCUK packaging like? Obviously they are the best of the best, but I have never purchased from here before.

(Hoping to get it on finance, so wish me luck!)

Thanks in advance, and hope you all have a very nice new year.

Thank you very much for your help, with my budget I also allocated £75-100 of that on labour, cable management, overclocking etc as although I have no real issues with building myself, it's the little things that I can't do which make that extra money worth it.

At the moment, I'm not too bothered about an SSD, that's why I opted for the extra tb of space. Boot times/loading screens never really bothered me to an extent of spending more.

I will consider both. :)

Do you think that I would be being ripped off if I went ahead with the prebuilt? I don't, personally. But I don't know everything about these things.

The RAM and case fans you suggested are great, I think the NZXT Phantom already comes with LED fans, but I was thinking about putting a window panel in there too.

See that one has really sent me off track now, haha.
I love the idea of a prebuilt machine from overclockers, but that looks insane for the price.

I might request no hdd, buy the one you recommended, and have an extra £50/60 to get a better graphics card.

I'm still trying to work out how you saved that much money from the prebuilt though, the case is around £20 cheaper, the CPU is the same, I think the PSU is the same etc.

I need to compare,
thanks!
 
You have been a great help, I can get the first one I posted, with 2tb but with the 780 card for £1162.98 inc VAT.

Works better as I do not need the OS :)
I suppose, if it comes to it, I can always get the 3tb drive at a later date just as a backup etc.

Cheers again

id just like to add i personally really recommend an SSD as the upgrade you will 'feel' or 'notice' more than anything else more or less, during day to day use, you can put all kinds of things on it (skype, browsers, spotify, steam, windows etc etc) which makes them all very snappy! either way your rig looks fantastic and i hope you have lots of fun with it! OCUK will build it professionally and you'll get a great warranty also

I appreciate the help :).
Would all games have to go onto an SSD? If so I can't really stretch the budget to a 250/500GB SSD. I could add one at a later time though if everything didn't need to be transferred, just the OS etc.

Thanks
 
Ah that makes a lot more sense now.
I quite like the idea of teamspeak/spotify taking less than 4 days to load up :P.

Cheers again, cleared up a lot of newbie questions for me.
