Planing phase on a cheap build

I dont need windows or a Hard Drive (already got one, reason why i decided to get an ssd)

No need for peripherals or monitors.

The budget is around that 460 mark or even cheaper (r9 270 maybe instead of the 280)

Storage: Crucial MX100 128GB 2.5" Solid State Drive  (£53.27 @ Dabs) 

Video Card: MSI Radeon R9 280 3GB TWIN FROZR Video Card  (£159.98 @ CCL Computers) 

Case: Cooler Master N200 MicroATX Mid Tower Case  (£28.13 @ Amazon UK) 

Power Supply: Corsair Builder 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply  (£49.98 @ Scan.co.uk) 

Total: £460.47

OP, you're good. Corsair is reputable psu brand(experience), and the chipset really doesnt matter on a locked cpu.

This 100000%

 

You'd be wasting your money if you got an i3 for the sake of an SSD now, also in the future SSD prices will drop even further!
