Hi all, Just wanted to make sure all these parts would work well together and if you have any suggestions for cheaper / better but same budget options?
The build is going to be a black and white super clean build, White LEDs and UV LED lighting too.

I have already bought the H440 Case and am about to pull the trigger on the Mobo and PSU. I am also giving him my OCZ OZ3 DDR3 RAM (8gb and a 2tb wd green HDD)
Also looking for some kind of white braided cables.

EVGA GTX TITAN SC 6GB GDDR5 - £400 (competetor)
YOUR BASKET
1 x Intel Core i7-4790K 4.00GHz (Devil's Canyon) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail £289.99
1 x SuperFlower Leadex GOLD 750W Fully Modular "80 Plus Gold" Power Supply - White £99.95
1 x NZXT H440 Midi - Tower Case - White £89.99
1 x MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition Intel Z97 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard £89.99
1 x Samsung 250GB 850 EVO SSD 2.5" SATA 6Gbps 32 Layer 3D V-NAND Solid State Drive (MZ-75E250B/EU) £79.99
1 x Raijintek Triton AIO Water Cooling Solution £69.95
OR
Corsair H110 CPU Liquid/Water Cooler with 280mm Radiator for Intel/AMD - Factory Refub £44.00 (Competitor)
Total : £719.86 (includes shipping : Ex.VAT).

 
You can't see the psu in that case so you don't need a white psu.

I would go for the EVGA G2 750W for a fiver less as you get double the warranty. The XFX is also a very good psu made by Seasonic if you want to save even more.


YOUR BASKET
1 x EVGA SuperNova G2 750W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply £94.99
1 x XFX XTR 750W '80 Plus Gold' Fully Modular Power Supply £79.99
Total : £174.98 (includes shipping : Ex.VAT).




That Raijintek cooler supposedly has questionable build quality. Also not sure on how good factory refurbs are, although at £44 it is probably worth a punt. The H110 is a very good cooler.


You can use extension cables in that case. Bitfenix do the Alchemy range.

Or if you want replacement cables that plug directly into the psu then look at cablemod kits.

E Series work with the EVGA G2 750W, and the SE Series will work with the XFX XTR 750W

Yeah i have the H110 from that same seller in my build and not had any issues so far (given only a month but still) and i did hear of someone's triton leaking...

I wasn't too sure how much power i would need for the build. Would 750 be enough?

My friends triton leaked messed up loads of stuff I personally would probably steer clear of them :)
