Different colour RAM but technically the same unit. Fully Modular PSU but isn't necessary due to the PSU shroud with the case which hides cables and a different vendor GPU.

Haswell refresh improvements, better SSD, better/nicer cooler, larger HDD. Enthoo M is built a bit better than the S340, and IMO looks nicer. Both are the same price though, so choose whichever you prefer. The Enthoo M and S340 both have a PSU shroud.

:thatguy: :thatguy: :thatguy: Just a note for the above build - If you plan on getting it, you will need to upgrade the BIOS or get someone else to do it. Since the CPU is Haswell Refresh, it wont work on stock B85 motherboards. H97 / Z97 boards wont have any issues with this.

It's going to be pretty rare to find an LGA1150 motherboard with an older BIOS than Haswell refresh now. It's been almost 18 months since Haswell refresh released. All motherboards leave the factory with the latest BIOS, it's very unlikely that you'll buy one that's been sitting in storage for longer than 18 months.

OP-You can spend the extra £10 on the Z97 PC Mate if you really want. If you want to save money to fit it in your budget, get a 1TB HDD or a 250GB BX100 instead.

Looks quite nice that to be honest!
