So with the GTX 1080 coming out soon, I thought it maybe an idea to start planning a new PC build for my self, I have had my old beast for over 4 years, and I believe its time to start saving.

This is what I have planned as a draft, its only for gaming, and of course the GPU isnt there because it isnt out yet.

What could you suggest to maybe lower the price a bit?

 

Thanks

Heads up, get a different PSU. NEX is sub-par.

Not bothered about founders edition, I was expecting around £500 for the GPU
