Is this a good £800 Gaming Desktop Build?

[Jacob Millard]

so quite recently I've been asking all of you for a £800 gaming desktop but all the ones I've been given always missed a couple of items that I needed and so i had to change the build entirely to fit the budget or were above the budget to begin with. I've spent a lot of time doing research and asking some of my buddies that know somethings about building computers and I came up with this build http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/3PJzjX I just wanted to know your thoughts on it and if you could make it cheaper without causing any major performance downgrades.

P.s I chose the z97 mobo because it was the same price as the h97 version, I may as well make it so if i decide to oc in the future I only have to change my CPU rather than both.

Just change that power supply. The NEX series, although they are 80+ gold are not the best psu's for the money. This Antec is a fantastic little psu for around the same price.

Get a Seasonic 620W power supply or an XFX 650W power supply and you should be set.
