Ahaha yep that was my main goal. Make a MACHINE not a not just a PC lol. A-lot of the extra cost was due to the Water Cooling loop. It's been a long dream of mine to have a water-cooled machine so I decided to make a machine worthy of housing one.

Hi, Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately the PC is already being built and it's too late to change anything. Price wise it was all within my budget so wasn't too bad. The PC came to £3,283 and the Monitor was £1,000.

thanks for the reply, regarding psu I like to give a bit more than needed to be on the safe side and incase I upgrade parts in the future. for the SSD I really don't know lol... was just one of the options for the SSD: 250GB SEAGATE BARRACUDA 120 2.5" SSD, (upto 560MB/sR | 540MB/sW). https://www.scan.co.uk/products/250gb-seagate-barracuda-25-ssd-sata-30-6gb-s-tlc-3d-nand-560mb-s-read-530mb-s-write-90k-90k-iops-ret?gclid=CjwKCAjwnIr1BRAWEiwA6GpwNTaZcWmA3QwTRYM7sHkaYGa50H0kiuI-n5FD03T7-0l_M9sDioKowRoCoUcQAvD_BwE
