I'm planning on upgrading my setup next month and wanted to be ready to order on the 26th.

I've got these already and just need to upgrade some of the core components.

HAF-X Case
Corasir HX620w PSU (Bought in 2007)
Samsung 250GB SSD 840 EVO
WD Black 1tb

With this in mind, would you change any of the following?

1 x Sapphire Radeon R9 290 Tri-X 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (11227-00-50G) £389.99
1 x Intel Core i7-4770K 3.50GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor & Corsair H100i CPU Cooler Bundle £339.94
1 x MSI Z87-G45 Gaming Series Intel Z87 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard £124.99
1 x Corsair Vengeance Pro Red 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-17100C9 2133MHz Dual Channel Memory Kit (CMY8GX3M2B2133C9R) £89.99
1 x BitFenix Alchemy 4-Pin ATX12V Extension 45cm - sleeved black/black £4.99

Any input is greatly appreciated.

The MSI is obviously £30 cheaper and the clock speed difference isnt that great to worry about performance difference to be honest.

Also if you wanted to do Crossfire later on consider a 850W+ PSU.
 
Wasn't planning on crossfire tbh, however I did swap it out for the RM850.

I also swapped to the 290X gaming edition.

Thoughts?
 
Aye, I've added a 850w PSU.

My old build is being passed on to a family member, the old PSU will be included. It's a starting point for them and I have advised them that it will need replacing soon.
