Bit fenix prodigy green its in the middle of the list and will get the power supply else were because overclockers stopped selling it for some reason
 
For the extra £20 i believe the R9 280x is a better card than the 760, I would go for this Powercolor tbh. It's the turbo version on special offer at £260 and BF4.

The Sapphire is only £5 more if that helps as well.

What resolution do you play at?
If you are playing at 1080p, I would go for the 2GB GTX 760 and maybe find a larger SSD or a 1TB HDD.
 
Haswell.

The 270X offers great bang for buck for 1080P gaming and you cop BF4 with this card. Yes I've changed the colour of the case and the styling but as it sounds like you won't buy for a lil while these specs are just to give you an idea of what is possibubble. It would be wise to check nearer the time of purchase to make sure things are balanced with all the offers taken into account ;)

Rolling with the green theme. Haswell is happy with faster RAM than 1600Mhz. The H105 has a thicker radiator than the H100 so I'd lean towards that CLC. GPU is the 270 not the 270X but is cheaper, still comes with BF4 but does have a shorter warranty.

All the best with it dude, we look forward to seeing what you settle on in the end :D
