I'm looking to build a new PC around the £350 mark, and am thinking either;

1. ASUS Sabertooth P67 B3 revision
2. ASUS P8Z68-V Z68

I'm looking at a 2500k or just 2500 and am using a single 560ti asus TOP but probable SLI in the future.

i know £350 doesn't look a lot, but i already have all other components (new ish) on a very aged Phenom 9550 system :lol:

also, any recommendations on RAM? preferably 8GB as I'm also trying to future proof as much as possible, i.e. make it last as long as possible, and for the parts to be fast enough until 3 or 4 years down the line (like my phenom).

oh, I'm mostly gaming but will be using CAD in the next year or so for Uni work, which is why I'm assuming large amounts of RAM ? please correct me if I'm wrong though!

Thanks for reading!
