Hey, sorry for not being clear, my price was in Canadian dollars. From what I see $1100 CAD comes out to 618 pounds. If you really cannot shell out an extra 40 pounds then maybe you can cut some corners by going with the motherboard you mentioned above. GL on ur build. Btw, my price included shipping and tax, so I am not sure if you are going the same route or what your taxes are if you want to take that into account 😉
