Just looking to make sure what im doing is sensisble and if anyone has any other suggestions.

Keyboard needed: No
Mouse needed: No
Monitor needed: No
Monitor is benq zowie xl2411 144hz
Not over clocking and will be mainly used for gaming.

Buying within a week, two at most.

Was thinking this for the build, any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Unlikely to use amazon to buy was just using it to get ab idea, any good places to buy online in the UK would be amazing to know.

Thanks for any replys.

Solid build, only thing I would change is a liquid CPU cooler.
pcpartpicker.com is a good place to find the cheapest seller.

I would maybe get a better cooler, potentially liquid.

Get a bigger harddrive, 1TB is fairly small, for the price they are you may aswell go for 2 or 3TB

Not 100% about the case, not seen it before but you are getting some extra fans anyway which is good just incase air flow inst great.

What monitor(s) are you using with the system?
What are you using the system for exactly?
Will you be overclocking?

What is the model number of the monitor? If you're not going to overclock, you can save some money by going with a locked i7.

Then no need for the 8700k as that is the OC version, maybe get an ASRock MB over that one too.

What sort of games are you going with?
