Hello there,

I'm planning to build a new gaming PC in 2 months for the upcoming Metal Gear Solid 5 TPP release and as a general upgrade.

My current budget ranges between 800 - 950£

Currently I'm thinking about the following setup:

1 x Western Digital WD Purple 1TB, SATA 6Gb/s
1 x Crucial MX100 256GB, SATA 6Gb/s
1 x Intel Xeon E3-1231 v3, 4x 3.40GHz, socket 1150, boxed
1 x Crucial Ballistix Sport DIMM Kit 8GB, DDR3-1600, CL9-9-9-24
1 x MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4G, GeForce GTX 970, 4GB GDDR5, 2x DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort
1 x Gigabyte GA-H97-D3H
1 x Samsung SH-224DB black, SATA, bulk
1 x EKL Alpenföhn Grosz Clockner rev. C
1 x Cooltek Antiphon Airflow black
1 x FSP Fortron/Source Aurum S 400W ATX 2.3

That's about 800£. What do you guys think about my setup?
