i done my fair research and so far i think this is the best bang for the buck (people will recommend r9 390, fair play but i need shadowplay, also much more comfortable with Nvidia drivers)

my question is, what do you think? will this be just fine for 1080? i mean i play some mainstream games which dont require half of this (cs go, League of legends) But then i can go to heavier titles like (rust,farcry4 when its out, GTA5) so you recon i should be fine with this and pull the trigger?

 

Thanks in advance.

yep. this looks quite good. You will be able to run all games 1080@60. One thing: i don't get why you would invest in a fully modular PSU with a build like this. you could save a few pounds and get a semi-modular that has the same quality (maybe not gold rating but silver suffices, and you don't save much on your energy bill by sacrificing this tiny bit of energy efficiency... you could get an evga 650 GQ for example!

might want to get a cpu collier either liquid or a better air. This will allow you in the future to overclock or to tax the cpu

well ,future prove is 1 because in future i might go for polaris or pascal or vulcan or WHATEVER comes, so i will always have headroom.]

2- it will be amazing energy saving because the PSU will always be on idle

3 it will look very nice in my case, and it will be pleasant to look at :3

 

and when we talk about this build what is 10 pounds? when i am getting gold PSU with good performance you know?
