Been running a Q6600 machine for a while, which is going to my cousin, now I has a new job, in the market for something new all over and fresh.

Now looking at the current Haswell builds, this is what I've come up with, only niggles that bugs me is that the mobo seems overkill and not sure which modular PSU to pick.

General uses as follows: gaming (BF3, Borderlands, EvE, WoW), lightroom/photoshop editing and that's it.

Intel Core i7-4770K 3.50GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor
MSI GeForce GTX 670 OC Twin Frozr Power Edition 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
Gigabyte Z87X-UD4H Intel Z87 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard
Iiyama Prolite X2377HDS 23" Premium IPS Panel Widescreen LED Monitor - Black
Intel 330 Series 120GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive
NZXT Phantom 530 Full Tower Gaming Case - Red
Corsair Vengeance Pro Red 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-17100C9 2133MHz Dual Channel Memory Kit
Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache - OEM (ST2000DM001)

@Redmint
Thanks for the PSU recommendation mate, will add that. Mobo wise, went for
Gigabyte Z87-D3HP, as it was reviewed nicely and cheaper too!

@ThaReaperGuy
Budget is around 1200-1300, it's just RAW image editing on PS


EDIT: Just realised that it doesn't have the little LED code display like my ASUS mobo has to show status codes, bah shouldn't matter anywho.
