Hello overclockers!

A friend of mine has landed himself a new job and with his new found money has wisely decided to spend it all on a new rig!:o

He has Windows 7 ready to load onto it and already has a few razor peripherals and a decent monitor to boot.. All I would like from you guys is a full tower build.

Everything from the case to the CPU. The whole shebang! ;)

His budget is sitting loosely around £1500. Your wise input would b greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Not so sure about those GTX970 inno3D cards after seeing people having to mod them to make the cooler fit properly with the core.

There's cheap, then there's too cheap.

That's a little worrying.

These Galaxy EX Blacks look good for the money though.. Look at the clocks on it..
