What are your specs?

What about the motherboard?

Specs currently are in my signature, R9 380 and FX-8350, motherboard will take £65 out of the budget leaving me with 335, forgot to say that.

 

Ryzen 5 1600 - GTX 980 Ti - Broke.

Best you can get for 400 pounds, downgrade bios and overclock 6500 to 4ghz+ plus if you have a z170, I think scan have next day delivery too in the UK, very good experience buying from them.

Ah, with 335 your better of with a I3-6100 (dont dismiss it because its a I3, very good performance similar to the 6400 for a much lower price point) 101 pounds

You can still get the RX 480 4GB Nitro+ 205 pounds

https://www.scan.co.uk/products/nda-4gb-sapphire-radeon-rx-480-nitroplus-14nm-polaris-pcie-30-7000mhz-gddr5-1208mhz-gpu-1306mhz-boos

 

Leaves you with 90 pounds for a mobo:

Entry Z170

Or high tier B150 or H170

Personally im using this G1 sniper which is around 107 pounds but I its has plenty of features, the x16 and x8 pcie slots in particular for its price point, if you ever need SLi

In case you guys didn't realize, the 8350 uses ddr3 ram. Going skylake would mean to also get ddr4.
