I'm hoping to build a new gaming PC within the next few months but I have no real idea what parts to get. I was thinking of the GTX 1080 graphics card and an Intel processor but i need help choosing other components. My budget is ~ £1500 but i don't need a monitor/keyboard/mouse etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also if this is in the wrong section or anything sorry! I'm not used to these forums!
