URGH no way, im fed up with built in GPU's with the cpu. it adds complication where it is not needed.

The Power supply was meant to cover any upgrades in the future.
I went for 1X8GB RAM for the same reason.

HD is something i don't need as i have a SSD already.

plus who the hell needs a optical drive?? lol.

I'm thinking of going for AMD GPU/CPU for mantle, what do you think?

Read again, Intel have extreme bad build in g-card, its the fan you don’t need any extra it follow with in the CPU box.

Was the 2 cards i selected for you and both are better and the one you chose. ( you only use one ofc, one is Nvidia other AMD were i prefer AMD even do Nvidia is faster, Think AMD/ATI have better looking graphic)

M-card can hold 4 memory’s so you still have 2 free slots and to get best performance you need 2 sticks (dual channel)
Samsungs EVO is extreme much fast if you have a old SSD

AMD makes good G-cards and good budget CPU (with build in g-card and so) but when comparing top off the line Intel is miles ahead on Everything (except g-card with you dont use), like memory is faster on intel chipset then AMD chipset.

A power supply have a TTL off about 3years so feels abit pointless.

If you buy Windows you will get it on a cd.
