Hi, i started my build (Will put below) but i need an SSD and a cooler but im torn (Also looking to replace my RAM with soem corsair vengeance idk tho) So if you can link me some that would be sick. In £ and nothing concerning cost (Just dont put anything stupid if you get me)

Case: Corsair Carbid SPEC-01
Mobo: msi z97 gaming 5
CPU: I5 4690k
GPU: GTX 970
PSU: Corsair CXM 600w (Can buy a new one if needed)
RAM: HyperX 8gb (2x4) 1866MHz -- Goinmg to get another pair of these, or swap completely

I think thats all the info you need, i also have 3 of the corsair red led 120mm fans to put in the front (x2) and in the back (x1) of the case. Ty

You could get a different cooler if you wanted to spend a bit less.

Also you should upgrade your PSU, but you wouldn't fit that into this budget.

I wouldn't get a CX series PSU again, they aren't the best but will do an ok job, plus unless you need more than 550W then don't bother, EVGA G2 or XFX PSU's are what you want.

tbh, my build could cope with a shitty 550w, my build** probably takes like 450w. the main reason I want a new one is just in case i want to expand in the future. i hear you about the CX series but i was shopping about and was torn, but the reviews tilted me towards the corsair.

They aren't the worst, but there definitely is better, i'm upgrading from mine after my system overhaul is done because it's done a decent job but it's time to replace it i think.

Don't buy a CX750. Your motherboard has SLI support, so just get a nice 650-750W unit(Seasonic, Super Flower, Delta, EVGA's GS/G2 units are good, as are XFX).

No need to replace your current RAM, it's a waste, just add another 8GB kit of the same, if you need more RAM.
