This SSD is worth the extra £5 - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-025-CS&groupid=1657&catid=2101&subcat=2102

Nice little spec then

Do you think this is worth the extra £4 for 30w more, a 5 year warranty and an extra pcie connctor?

Both are good PSU's and yes worth the extra £4.

dont get the ssd and get an i5

if you remove the ssd and the i3 you can get a much more powerfull cpu http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-362-IN&groupid=701&catid=6&subcat=1275

I need either a hdd or an ssd, with current hdd prices i though the investment in the ssd for the os and a few games was much better than a better cpu or a similar priced hdd, also i didnt want to get an i5 this time, if i was going to i would want a 2500k, then i would want a z68 board etc, it would be too expensive. the rig is only really to play League of legends and go on the web.

Thanks for the good idea though, if i had a hdd i would have done that.

Do get the SSD. It's a world of difference between a mechanical hard drive and an SSD.

 

[Dave0w]

yes. if you must get a storage drive of some sort ssd is the way to go
