On amazon.co.uk the 650W PSU is 4 pounds more expensive than the 550 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJLSzsEjpWM

The hyper 212 is overrated. And the Powercolor cooler is great. It's Asus and Gigabrick that suck.

It is good, don't really see a big problem with it.

Only thing I would do is to buy the bx200 ssd and maybe get a dark rock (non pro) 3 cooler, it is a lot better and looks sexy af. but that's just me

edit: did you consider skylake and ddr4?

Longboarders/ skaters message me!

That's not to say the 212 is a bad cooler. Its just a thing I would do, to get a dark rock 3. And ye, if price is a problem then don't worry, the performance difference isn't THAT big to worry about. The 4790k is a great cpu and will last a long time

Powercolor is perfectly fine. Also, the list I suggested is cheaper than the one you started with... so yeah.

is there much point in buying a 6700K if I have an R9 390? won't the GPU bottleneck it real bad?

 

Edit: if I'm going 1151 mobo suggestions?

What do you mean by cm?

Also, the GPU won't bottleneck it much at all.

There's no such this as a Cooler Master H60. It's Corsair :P and even then 120mm AiOs are worthless as some of the larger heatsinks (like the dark rock pro 3 and the NH-D15) outperform them.
