Hi, have picked out the parts i want to use for a new build, don't need OS or dvd drive or psu.
need to keep under £600, anything you would change before i buy and any extra cables i might need .
also are the b grade parts a sensible buy.

KFA2 GeForce GTX 970 EX OC "Black Edition" 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (97NQH6DNB4TX)

AMD Piledriver FX-8 Eight Core 8320 Black Edition 3.50GHz (Socket AM3+) Processor

MSI 970 Gaming AMD 970 (Socket AM3+) DDR3 ATX Motherboard

Kingston HyperX Savage Red 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-14400C9 1866MHz Dual Channel Kit (HX318C9SRK2/8)


Cougar Solution 2 Midi-Tower Gaming Case - Black Side Window
 
You may want to grab an aftermarket cooler aswell,as i assume you will OC the cpu and the stock cooler will limit you on that front.


B-grade is generally ok,although you have to watch out for certain things,for instance if your buying that 970 listed as 'B-grade' its almost certainly been returned due to having excess coil whine :D
 
cheers.
have changed to the zotac gpu.
think i will give the b grade gpu a miss, would you change add anything else,
is the motherboard ok or is there a cheaper just as good one even b grade if need be.
 
cheers for your help both of you. fingers crossed it will all come by the weekend, my other half is away so can get down to some testing and gaming.
Thanks again Darren
