New Gaming PC Build

[Flash101]

Hey all,

So I finally got a job which means I can get a new PC

I'm not all top experienced with system building so please givee some suggestions/feedback if you see something that could be improved etc.

My budget is around £1500 ish but I can go a over that if it's worth it.

So, what do you think?

Looks like a very nice build. Only thing to change would be the PSU. Corsairs CX series is pretty low quality and i wouldnt use one of these on a pc like that.
If you want to stick with Corsair go for the AXi/AX/HXi/RMi series.
Should be still in the budget with one of these.
Otherwise take a look at this list: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html
Go for any tier 1 PSU you like.

That sucks! I'm pretty sure the CPU would be compatible though if you got the right motherboard.
