The picture is incredibly small. Tell him to stuff it with bubble wrap and remove the video card. This way, you run less of a risk of breaking something. Mind me asking, why such a killer system with only 4GB RAM?

Looks like it should rock.  Many are talking about the RAM and I agree a little more is needed but I would also think about swapping that 2nd gen CPU for something newer.  Not a must but just a thought.

I am not good with watercooling loops and pounds, but someone else can probably help. @Samdb?

Don't buy second hand watercooling products, they are selling them for a reason.

If you trust the seller and knows the rig works completely then you might buy it for about £800-£900, that's with P&P but a price tag about £750 +P&P would be a fair price for it, cost of RAM is high atm and looks like it could be pain if you need to put in the GPU after delivery and fill the water cooling again.

Cry Havoc!
