get the Evo SSD of same capacity.

for that money I got myself Thermalright Macho HR-02 BW revision CPU cooler, but not sure if OcUK stock them, as I only found rev.1 here.

think about this too: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18543589

don't bother with paste, it will come with the cooler.

Thanks Kefan77 saved on the paste so far...

I'm a Asus fanboy and i need sli... i could drop down to a Asus Z87-PLUS..

I'll prob go for the evo ssd cheers
can add £20 or so on cooler and would get more case fans if needed...
Asus 760 runs at 63c stress test and 48c crysis 3, My old 280gtx 78c crysis...

I am a fan of the Asus maximus motherboards but do you really need it. You can get a really good mother board for quite a bit less.

Hi swiftmetal ....
Yeah a Asus Z87-A would save £44 or plus £20 would the cheaper boards be as good overclocking wise and i was thinking of use'n the onboard sound chip instread of a sound card....
