Do you already have the 780ti ?

 

What resolution are you gaming at ? A 780ti is overkill at something like 1080P although it will last.

 

Do you want to add a second graphics card in the future ? If not then go for a 550W/650W psu.

 

What is your budget ?

Do you already have the 780ti ? Nope don't have any of this yet

 

What resolution are you gaming at ? A 780ti is overkill at something like 1080P although it will last. Going to play on the new benq 27" monitor

 

Do you want to add a second graphics card in the future ? If not then go for a 550W/650W psu. I won't use a second graphics card so I decided to go with the coolmadter v modular series v650

 

What is your budget ?

and don't have a budget I'm just willing to spend as much as it takes to get the best specs on my custom build

Wait to the end of the month when the i7-4790K will be available. It is 0.5 GHz faster than the i7-4770K at stock.

 

The Corsair H105 cpu cooler does a better job than the H100i.

 

DDR3-1600 memory should be CAS 9 or lower for optimal performance.

 

Rather than a Velociraptor go with a 1TB ssd. Vastly better performance and much quieter & cooler operation.

Haven't included the Monitor, as you are going with the Benq.
 
The gigabyte motherboard comes with 8GB Ram at the moment. It is the Kingston HyperX below.
 
The NZXT is a bit overpriced imo, considering you can get something like the 760T for £50 less.
 
 

YOUR BASKET
Total : £70.69 (includes shipping : £7.25).

My spec above has a 780ti and i7 4790K. If you are in the UK then 'brob's' spec is from USA vendors, so the prices will be different over here.

 

A 1TB SSD is a huge chunk out of the budget. I would suggest sticking with a 250GB SSD and a large HDD for storage.

Yes , you will get a great performance , but if you want to go balls to the walls just add another GTX 780TI  and a PB278Q and be happy :D (and you will probably need to get atleast 850w PowerSupplyUnit)
