budget build for mate

[Tripp]

NP. Jayz did a video on the 480, it was pure awful. I can't see how much would have changed tbh.

I would wait on that myself. It's infinitely better looking, has a nice back plate and pretty much the same cooler the Nitro has/had.

Yeah that does look the mutts Nutts to be fair, will advise my mate of it

For the GPU if you are going AMD like AlienAX said go with sapphire, xfx and I heard the MSI card was okay too. Possibly the red devil version too.

That's a pretty good list dude, I have this so far myself.

Just been told by a mate that there a full sandy bridge in system for sale close to me for £400 too, and that's rocking a 1060 and o's.....so decisions need to be made

That seems over budget to me
To save money, you could get a 1400X. You get a CPU cooler with that which would mean you save some money by dropping the Hyper 212. Will have less overclocking headroom though

I'm from Denmark, so I don't know where you buy used stuff in UK but being on a budget I would start out with used stuff. You can get a lot of performance per £

ok so settled on this build so far, what do you lot think?

I'd make sure that your chosen memory is on your motherboard's QVL list, just to be sure that it will work. Below is link to the QVL list.

I also recommend looking at the Overclockers UK clearance section, they have an RX 480 for £170 ATM and a few deals on 144Hz FreeSync panels. Could save you guys a few £ looking there. I would go for an RX 480 over an RX 570.

Any particular reason why you are going for the Deathadder Chroma mouse? Surely there are better mice available for this bang/buck build. I still use my £20 Cooler Master Xornet mouse after years of constant use with no issues, not that the Chroma is bad, just that the money could be better spent elsewhere.

Drop that Hyper 212 evo as you will get a cooler with it. Also I heard OCUK have some deals on GPU's ATM too. EDIT: WYP has already informed us of the OCUK deals
