so i hav a budget of £1200 (giv or take) n i wanted the best possible gaming build that i wont have to update for a while...so heres the list (please tell me wht u think 
) ....in order for me to retain the performance of the build, i had to decrease money on hdd, ssd, ram and psu ...just hope they're reliable tho....n the reason for me going with the gtx 780 instead of the alot cheaper r9 290 is phsyx....mesmerising! ...the case is second hand and the headsets are refurbished, but that doesnt really matter does it? (both are excellent condition btw)...also, does my chosen psu has all the needed rails and cables or whtver? Power supplies is the only field where my expertise falls aparts..
