Bundle but only 16Gb of RAM, did you really need 32Gb?

Silenced case and a PSU able to run a single 290X, if you wanted crossfire then you need 850W or higher considering the power requirements of X99 compared to Z97.

It might be cheaper to buy individually, check if it is.
 
The Seasonic M12II EVO Edition 850W is a great PSU and has enough power for another card if you wish to crossfire. As for case I always recommend the Phanteks Enthoo Pro, it's just a great case all around and universally praised. I also really like the layout and its looks, though I am usually a fan of NZXT cases.
 
@stulid Thanks very much for the rapid response and very nice build.

I did a quick compare of the items and pretty much they are the same.
The CPU is cheaper but the MB is slightly expensive.

I have a question regarding the RAM the one on the 32GB build is more expensive :-

Avexir Platinum 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 PC4-19200C16 2400MHz Quad Channel Kit (AVD4U24001608G-4M)

compared to :-

TeamGroup Elite 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 PC4-19200C16 2400MHz Quad Channel Kit - Black (TPKD432GM2400HC16QC01)


I had a quick look on the specifications they looked the same to me. Have i missed something out ?

Just to give you further details (should have added this before) I don't intend to overclock my system I would keep everything to stock.

The reason I require lots of memory is not for gaming but for work, as i run quite a few VM's simultaneously.

@ Poneros Thanks very much these cases look very good. One of the things which I would like is to keep my system cool without using too many fans. They collect too much dust pretty fast, and after 6 monthly or so I have to open them up and clean then out :P

Cheers
 
 
@stulid Thanks mate this looks great, Will the power supply have enough modules to connect to the motherboard and gpu ? I have in the past ran into problems where, a motherboard requires an 8 pin + 24 pin power module but the power supply only came with a 6 pin one or had too few ?
 
They may have, they certainly had tri-x listed. But stock is clearing out ready for new cards so what you see is what's left.
