Please could someone build me a PC around these parts?

[Snakethejake214]

I don't have these parts but I love the look of the NXT S340 case and the MSI GTX 970 is rated at the best 970 for gaming. It might take a miracle but could someone build me a PC using these parts for £700 or under?

Thanks all.

Will that Motherboard be any good? and also are you sure that that PSU will be able to handle everything at full load? I am more than happy not to go with skylake so if you could suggest a similar Haswell build then it would really help!

The Skylake build will perform better but Haswell still works fine.
The Super Flower PSU is high quality and plenty of power for an i5 / GTX 970.

Just made a few adjustments to bring it closer to the budget. I changed the CPU to a 4590 as I read that that was the price-performance 'sweet spot' i5 and the Asrock board has better reviews. Thanks so much for your help and here is the buid I will be putting together within the next year, if you do see this, could you give me an idea on how it will run the newest games? I don't mind if you can't but I can't look up Youtube benchmarks atm as I'm on holiday and I only have a bit of mobile data left this month and YT uses loads! Thanks SO much again for all of your help!

Actually should I just go with the Skylake build? It is only the MoBo that is concerning me.

The H110 motherboard is fine. It just doesn't have a lot of features the more expensive boards have. It has less USB and SATA ports and only uses one video card and does not overclock. If you want more from the board you can move up to H170 but the cost goes up as well. The i5-6500 does not overclock so a Z170 board has no major benefit except for SLI. The Skylake build is the newest tech.
