Planned Build

Greeting OCD3,
I am planning a Build, and would welcome advise from those with more experience, it should be for Gaming and Overclocking, General PC use, Music and a few Photos. I want a good build and don't mind spending time planning and some cash ( limit £ 1000-£2300). Here is my general list, I will be doing Watercooling, CPU, Blocks for GPU and possible motherboard, But that list will come later. Some of my choices are so I can add and update later.

If it were me I'd change the NZXT Switch 810 to a CaseLabs Merlin SM8. Go for the 240GB SSD or even a 512GB SSD, games can take up alot of room. Everything else is a good choice.

advice on Peripherals, Monitor, Mouse, and Keyboard etc?

24" Asus VN247H Slim Bezel LED Display (that's what I use)
Corsair Mechanical Gaming Keyboard
Corsair Gaming Mouse
Corsair Mouse Mat

Hi Crazy Teeka,
Many thanks for the quick reply and suggestions, I would love the Caselabs Merlin SM8, But 900 $ for shipping + Customs + Tax in Switzerland Tax is determined by retail costs plus they tax on shipping costs . It's a pity they have no European retail outlet.
Thanks For the other tips, I will look into that.
Many thanks Formular VI
