I want a gaming pc parts list with DDR4 ram and 4K compatible and for under £1400 which is $2088 (according to google's currency converter) also would it be possible for at least 600-700 GB SSD + an i7 processor

i asked for DDR4 not DDR3 and you chose $5000 parts also no mouse and keyboard unless you an get a good pc under £1400 as i have a mouse and keyboard my mouse have 2 extra buttons on it and my keyboard is fine but in the future i will want to upgrade them not now any way
 
A H97 system with 8gb ddr3 can game at 4k just as well as a X99 with ddr4. What is the obsession with ddr4, you say this is a gaming build for 4k, if that's what it is drop the idea of ddr4 so you can invest more in gpu's which are far more important. If you must go X99 and ddr 4 you are going to need about £2k

I dont know i see DDR4 is better and faster also uses less power than DDR3
 


Unfortunately its not as simple as that and being honest some of it goes over my head. What I do know is the performance difference between a 4690k and z97 board with ddr3 and x99 systems with ddr4 is very small for gaming, other uses there is a significant difference. However the x99 board, CPU and ram will cost 3 to 4 times as much. Spend some time looking up benchmarks

If you want to game at 4k you are really looking at something like 2x 980's which are going to set you back about £900 on there own.
