    Hello. I am going to attempt a PC build: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/Zj7fBb I don't know if the GPU will cover the bottom PCI-E express slot as i need it for a Wireless Card (I prefer it over wireless USB). The GPU is 4cm tall, but I don't know if it will or not cover the bottom slot...

    You could've got a 1070 at that price assuming you bought it for £270 . Not a problem if you ordered through Amazon, since they usually let you return items no questions asked. Ebuyer (Cheaper Link)...

    Yeah, you might wanna consider a 570 like cyroburner said, but if you can afford to spend more i would go for a rx 580 8gb, but if not then the 1060 or the rx 570
