this is a tad more expensive, although much better quality. PM me if you have any more questions! (I'd be happy to help!)

Feel free to select a Best Answer so others can use it as reference.

Also, whats your budget? I can't tell if I went over or not.

It seems pretty good and as I don't need the optical drive or the hard drive the price would go under 800pounds. But.... I doubt scan.co.uk has those prices, they are going to be a bit more expensive, but I will check dude, replying back again in 5

Wow so the price is actually quite the same! (Win 8.1 costs fucking 81pounds there, maybe I should get it from somewhere else? Or just win10?) But yeah got it for 790 pounds and if I can find Win8.1 cheaper somewhere I can drop the price to like 770pounds.

By the way the shop didn't have some of the parts so here are the ones I picked:

Motherboard
https://www.scan.co.uk/products/msi-b150-pc-mate-intel-b150-s-1151-ddr4-satae-m2-(sata)-2-way-crossfire-realtek-lan-usb-31-gen1-a-at

Case
https://www.scan.co.uk/products/aerocool-aero-500-white-windowed-gaming-case-card-reader-usb-30-mini-itx-micro-atx-atx

Memory
https://www.scan.co.uk/products/8gb-(2x4gb)-corsair-ddr4-vengeance-lpx-black-pc4-19200-(2400)-non-ecc-unbuffered-cas-16-16-16-39-xmp

My budget was under 800pounds so this one is great. So now I have one question, should I take the first build with this one's Memory or should I take this one? I am thinking about this one as I might even get this one for lower price and i5-6500K is better as I am planing to use this computer for a couple of years at least

Those other parts are fine, and there is no difference in the 2 RAMs but I like the G.Skill heatspreaders (they look cool as all hell). The i5-6600k is only useful if you get a Z170 board, which is $30-$40 more than your current one. Its up to you to decide.
