Looks good to me.

10/10 A really bang for the buck build.

 

 

EDIT: Apparently, I can't type properly.

Looks good.

 

Although some people are different, but I don't really like the Hyper 212. I know that it performs very well, but I know a lot of people (myself included) who just dont like it for a few reasons. 

 

If you can squeeze it, I would go for an AIO so you can get some extra overclocking headroom

Should get the IPS version of the display much better for the long run over spending a lot on your keyboard and all that now

Also you can overclock locked Skylake CPUs with some boards, mostly Asrock at this time, so you could save there as well, or just go haswell I don't know the price difference in the UK

Thank you, I don't really need the keyboard right away so I guess I'll cash in a bit more for an ips display
