Thanks mate, laptop prices are pretty high atleast to me, new prices for this model seemed to vary from £1500 to £1900. My only concern now in hardware sense is the RAM but as its gaming and browsing i figure 8 will do for now

Hello. On a recently purchased HP Omen (open box) i went for a free trial with avast with clean up, having fixed about 200 registry errors which in itself baffled me on a new system, avast is suggesting i sleep spybot as it is supposedly slowing my system severely. as spybot was added by me for...

Hi I was wondering if there any U.K available laptops having both a 4k screen and any combination of gpu set up capable of running it that i wont hate in a few years, personally i dont feel a single 970m will cut it. anything available with 1x 980m or 2x 970m? i recall hearing rumors of a...

http://pcpartpicker.com/b/LZn look at this blokes build, i claim no credit for the build pulled it off the site

I cant offer good advice on the case as i havnt worked with corsair cases, id suggest either personal messaging a fello on here called rolli who i go to with my questions, he knows damn near everything, or look at the builds using this part bit and look for 1 with a 760

thats still a 660

here is my link, its u.k based but i personally would consider upping the psu or going with 1 gpu. have you considered a 7970 ? especially if u have an amd cpu with mantle coming out my thought would be to pair amd with amd if it were me. note even as i say this i still plumping for an i5...
