I am building a new pc and was wondering should i buy some of it now and buy the rest later or buy it all at once. I have found a deal for a msi r9 280x gaming oc for £239.99 on overclockers uk and it ends this week so should i buy it now and buy the rest later or wait till i have the money to build the hole pc?

Whatever works for you. If its more convenient to buy the parts separately then go ahead just make sure you store them in a safe place (a place where they won't break) or you could save up and go on a mass shopping spree! As for the card i don't know. If the supplier is trust worthy go ahead.

If it takes less than a month it would be good but you may find better offers during a month also prices will change. But personally I wont go for a MSI mobo.

Okay if its a trust worthy supplier than buy it and again as long as you have a safe place to store the parts you can take as long as you want getting all the parts (but not excessively long keep it to 3 months or less). As for msi there is nothing wrong with them i have a low end msi mobo and it works fine for me.

Then by all means buy the graphics card if theres a deal and store it in a safe place then buy the rest of the computer.

That's my idea about msi mobos but their VGA's are not that bad, actually comparing to other brands difference in performance is so small, although when it comes to quality, asus and gigabyte are the brands that I would go for.
But considering the price I say you'd better buy it as performance is the same.
