So this is what I have so far, I just cannot decide, I keep changing my mind all the time:

YOUR BASKET
1 x EVGA GeForce GTX 770 Superclock ACX 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (02G-P4-2774-KR) £269.99
1 x Intel Core i7-4770K 3.50GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor - OEM £245.99
1 x Samsung Green 16GB (4x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C11 1600MHz 30nm Dual/Quad Channel Kit (MV-3V4G3D/US) £239.98
1 x Gigabyte G1.Sniper M5 Intel Z87 (Socket 1150) DDR3 Micro ATX Motherboard £169.99
1 x Samsung 250GB SSD 840 EVO SATA 6Gb/s Basic - (MZ-7TE250BW) £142.99
1 x Seasonic 660w '80 Plus Platinum' Modular Power Supply £129.95
1 x BitFenix Phenom MATX Cube Case - Midnight Black £74.95
1 x Microsoft Windows 8.1 64-Bit DVD - OEM (WN7-00614) £71.99
1 x Gelid Solutions GC-3 10g Extreme Performance Thermal Compound £19.99
Total : £1,379.92 (includes shipping : £11.75).



So I need your help, what cooling would you go with? All suggestions welcome. :)

With so many options, even I am struggling to make my mind up!

Is a platinum PSU worth the premium over gold? I'm not sure. The Seasonic G-series 550w is £50 cheaper than the one you've got there.

That RAM is expensive, too. You could save enough to upgrade that 770 to a 780.

As for cooling, I'd want something discrete for an mATX case - a h80i or something like that.

The price doesn't bother me really, and as for the memory, I have the memory already, so don't really want to be changing it already as I have it in my current system. :)

I was thinking of one of the Corsair kits, not sure though, need fans too for the system. Maybe Noiseblocker?

Nice setup. What will you mostly be using it for 5UB? Gaming?

Yeah, and maybe the odd movie editing, as I want to learn that. :)
 
With the Samsung Greens, I have 16GB already. I got them cheap back in the day. Still going strong and gone up in price now. :)
 
That is a Tech Labs Fathom in the case pretty much, in which our technical department has put it together for customers, so it is easy to install for customers. :)
 
I have a BenQ 24" 120Hz.

I have hard drives already, and I think I will stick with a H100i and get some decent fans to go with the system.

And yes, I do just play CS. I am a bit of an addict. :p
 
So this is the current list:

1 x EVGA GeForce GTX 770 Superclock ACX 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (02G-P4-2774-KR) £269.99

Anything more to make it look pretty inside, no window and a bit of a cramped case so not expecting miracles! :p
