Skylake Build ?

[owens2000]

Time to upgrade - my 5 Year old i5-760 Overclocker's system is getting a bit long in the tooth. I plan to transfer my ssd, a couple of hard disks and GTX770 to a new PC.
I had a look to see if OCUK had a system which meets my specs below but not quite.

Any thoughts on the spec ?

If someone from OCUK can pm a quote on building this for me, or any other advice I would appreciate it.

Thanks for the response and quote... saving a bit of money there over my initial spec.

Good spot also on the NVE Samsung drive !
Any reason why you prefer the Gigabyte board over the Asus Pro?
I'd spece'd the Be-Quiet cooler and Corsair PSU because I'd read they were particularly quiet among their peers but I assume the alternatives you propose will be similar?

Thanks again.

NVME version of the drive, so quick iop numbers.

CPU+Board bundle, a little guide from me how to oc - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18690667

Superflower made PSU, ECO fan mode, fully modular, 7yr warranty.

Nice black heatsink and should look like this once fitted in that case,
