just found this: https://www.scan.co.uk/products/750w-cooler-master-g750m-hybrid-modular-80plus-bronze-1x120mm-quiet-fan-atx-v231-psu

The same motherboard with a free CM G750M PSU worth 75 quid. Sure, not the best PSU but why not take it for free?

I was looking at that, but I was told that PSU wasnt great, so didnt know which way to go!

Im currently looking to finally invest into a new PC so I probably will be getting that board with a PSU.

I was originally planning to get a Z170-A board from Asus but after checking your part list decided to get Gaming 7 since colour scheme is the same but board itself better overall and a free PSU is a bonus (I wont have to spend 130 quid on a RM1000i PSU).

This is what I'm looking at atm (all prices are from scan.co.uk). Yes, a little too expensive for me but should last a lot longer (not wasting money on cheap parts).
