Hey everybody, I know im posting a lot, but I just want the best system I can get before spending a lot of money, so the system I intend to buy in the next few days is
Mobo - http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/motherboa...
Cpu - http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/processor...
Gpu - http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/nvidiagef...
Psu - http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/p1-850s-n...
then im using some parts of my old pc
1tb sata III hdd
16gb DDR3 @ 1333mhz (until I absolutely have to upgrade)
CIT dominator case (has lots of fans, and doesn't look to shabby, so im gunna use that)
But my question is, will this future proof me for a good 5 years, I've got a motherboard with a second gpu slot, so if i ever need it I can buy another gtx 770, and the motherboard supports up to 3000mhz ram, so Im hoping that covers me for a good while, and the i7 cpu im hoping will cover me for a while, the reason im not going for the i5, is that when the time comes that games can utilize 8 threads, I'm already prepared, rather than buying a new cpu when the time comes.
I'm just wanting to play games on 1920x1080
On ultra
smoothly
Also, will the psu im getting handle to 770's stably, and a slight overclock on the cpu one day ... im not wanting to replace anything for the next 5 years, just add a new gpu if needed, maybe ram when the time comes, and possibly throw a solid state drive in, but i want the system itself to be pretty solid
Advice on this system please

I haven't heard of devils canyon, basically I have 650 british pounds (yes I'm british) and want to get the best psu/cpu/gpu/mobo I can for that price, I imagine the newer cpu's will be way more expensive, so If anyone can provide me with the best intel based build for that price, I would be greatly thankful

The answer is no .
Why ?
Soon DDR4 ram will be out , 5th gen intel cpu's will be out , and the 8** nvidia series will soon be out , so i'd wait till all these are out , buy them instead of what you've choosen and you should be fine

You wont ever need eight threads if you get a card like the r9 290 or gtx 780 with the i5 like pigs in space suggests. You would not need to run crossfire/sli either. The 6nm processing spread will generate enough cpu headroom for the video card as long as the whole system lasts and no matter how demanding a game is.

Then go for r9 290, it is 400$, 70$ more than the 770, you get twice the vram http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
