This is a new build for a friend (he isnt very PC friendly so he will never overclock, or go crossfire/sli). its primary purpose is for playing WoW & some other games. he just needs the Base Unit (no keyboard, mouse, monitor etc) & I can give him my old Samsung 830 SSD (he also has a really old HDD he can use to save money if needed) also got Win7. he wants to get this Case (Corsair Carbide Air 240) the budget is £700 & if possible he would prefer Intel & Nvidia parts.

We would Like to order it by Monday
Thanks for reading :)
 
 
^ Could always swap the 105 cooler for a 212 evo and put the extra cash towards a 970gtx. I'd be tempted to go for a bigger psu aswell. I have a 600w and it's struggling to run a 280x. Although it's crappier than the superflower. :p

Max supported cooler height is 120mm so that rules out all normal tower heatsinks.

Other option is to go for a weaker all-in-one such as H55/H60/H75/H80i

550W from Superflower (good strong quality PSU) is plenty.
