Add an SSD and if you haven't already bought Windows then just get a key from kinguin for cheaper. And you don't need a optical drive.

For all you know he could need an optical drive.

Adding an SSD would be good, bit weird you didn't put one in when its a £1k build.

you are paying a bit too much for the ram and that case is not so good

also if you tell me the ram is beautiful then no. your case has no side panel to look at it

other than that looks fine

[Mello]

You have an i7-4790K already?

I'm pretty sure you won't have the much benefit to an i5 in gaming.

Even with overclocking while paying more.

I was thinking of i5 4690 (not overclockable)

[Mello]

it's the same as i5 6600

and yes it's gonna last a long time, just pay more for a graphics card.

 

Do you really need the optical drive?
