I'm sorry I didn't mention I was just in a rush, I'm at about 800 GBP as I live in the UK. I want a PC that will be badass for gaming, thanks. This CPU and Motherboard though are a neccesity in my build since I found a bundle discount.

You gonna tell us the price of the bundle you found?

Specs are on my profile page

 

 Teach a man to fish and he ends up sticking a screw driver in a turned on power supply seeing if it still works.        #KilledMyWifeWithABomb            Resolution is just a number

Isn't there a way to get a Liquid Cooler for the CPU like the H100i without jumping the budget?

Yea, sure, you'll save money with the bundle you found anyway, and some of those items are cheaper from other sites. Maybe you can just about make it.

Oh crap, I actually just realized that mobo is ATX. You'll have to change the case.

I would not use that case anyway, I would use this one Cooler Master Storm Scout II Black Performance Gaming Mid Tower Case USB 3.0 w/o PSU

 is this one ok?

 

Wouldn't be my choice, but Ok.
