a few little improvements since i first posted my introduction and to finally start a build thread as i will be making some changes when bloody Vega does eventually release.
my inspiration for this pc was always vfm (value for money) with a touch of premium if that makes sense, I didnt want to spend loads but wanted a mid/high end, so it was always about the bargains, some notable steals was the 6600k i bought new for £160, my trident z for £80 and the ranger mother board for £120 with a £20 rebate back in march 2016 during a ebay vat free weekend. Other notable bargains ive had was the purchase of my dell refurb alienware 15 R2 laptop for £670.
complete parts list.
r9 290 with hg10 and h55 AIO
6600k 4.5 overclock
h100i AIO
Asus Ranger motherboard
g skill tridentz 3200 ram (16gb)
samsung 240gb ssd
wd 1tb HDD
cablemod cables
corsair RM850 power supply
custom psu cover
corsair 750d case
sp120 fans with thermaltake rgb front fans

Here's how she looks compared to when I first posted her compared to the first imagining of her.
