I am not buying the parts until around December so there probably will be.

My budget is around £750-800

i think you should use pcpartpicker for your build. its a really good website. also i would say you should get a better graphics card

I agree with the GPU. So if I selected a lot of parts and ordered them they'd all come on the same day? I find sites like that confusing as they compare from other sites.

I'll have a look, thanks.

SSD is for OS, HDD is for storage.

Well I'm new to PC building but I know bits and bats; please can you tell me which PSU to get for my money?

Yes, the SSD for the OS. But it never ends up being 'only' the OS.
Applications should also go there.

I have a 120GB SSD. Having the applications on it as well makes everything faster, not just the OS.
My 120 is currently ~67GB used space.

For the PSU, see this list:

Your chosen one isn't terrible, but there are other, better ones.

Damn, £800 and it's hardly anything.

Looked at PC Part Picker, don't have a clue what to do, I only know GPU and CPU. So should I only get a 1TB HDD and 256GB SSD?
