Gaming PC build.

[james_1337]

I have been thinking about building my first gaming PC for a while now, and my budget is around £800. This is what I have came up with - http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/6J2mjX

I know that I want a GTX 970, but not sure which one to get.

I'm also unsure on how big my power supply needs to be, I probably won't overclock heavily, but will most likely add another 970 somewhere down the line.

Is this a good build for the money? I can get it cheaper on newegg for 750 pounds

For SLI 970s you want 750w. Antec, XFX, Seasonic, EVGA (B2,G2) are your friends.

The build looks great.

Build looks really good. Personally, I'm a fan of EVGA video cards, and for SLI, as Tiny Voices said, you want at least 750W.

750w is all you need. Honestly, people SLI 970s on 650w no issue at all. 750w would be the most I would get.

I like EVGA blowers, but I cannot stand their ACX cards. I have the ACX 760. It is VERY loud.

I would probably get an MSI if I was buying new.

I've got the 750ti FTW with ACX, and unless I'm sitting in complete silence and listening for it, it's inaudible. The second I play music, you can't hear a thing,.

My 760 is quiet at idle but once the fans speed up it gets loud fast.
