Looks like a good build, but how much more can you spend on the 708 pounds?

You can SLI if you'd like in the future without having to spend anything extra. The power supply and motherboard covers it.

Thanks,

I was just wondering what the difference between the motherboards was and the cpu?

For the CPU, the i5 4690k is slightly better than the i5 4590. However, you can overclock the i5 4690k, since it has the "K" at the end of the model.

For the motherboard, every LGA1150 CPU will fit in any LGA1150 board regardless of what board version it is. If you have a K at the end of your processor model then you should be getting a Z97, or you can't overclock. H97 boards are usually designed for the non-overclockable processors. There are older/inferior versions of the board, like the B85, H81, H85. The only boards that I believe support overclocking are the Z87, and Z97 boards. Z97's are usually slightly more expensive than H97s. However, basically every H97 board does not offer SLI support.

You could go with a an i5 4690 (without the K) and a H97 board, though. However you won't be able to SLI in the future.
