Hi, I'm going to build my first gaming pc. I have done lots of research and I feel confident on my choices however I am open to suggestions and would love to hear what your thoughts are. I was also going to buy some red saga cable to fit me black and red design but I'm not sure how many I will need.
Specs:
Intel core i7 6700k
Corsair h100i hydro cup cooler
Msi z170 a gaming 5
Kingston hyper x 16gb
Western digital 1 to hardrive
240 gab ssd
Msi GeForce gtx 980ti
Nzxt h440
750 modula corsair psi
Windows 10 64 bit

The total coast is about £1300

It would help if you'd provide the exact part numbers for all your components. There are many 240GB SSD's on the market, several different Corsair 750 watt modular PSUs and MSI GeForce GTX 980ti's, at least 25 different Kingston 16 GB HyperX kits, etc.

Get a gtx 1070 or 1080 instead of the 980ti. If the 980ti is quit a bit cheaper then get that but personaly i would get a gtx 1070 or 1080. The i7 is a bit overkill for gaming. I was going to get that exact processor but i got the i5 6600k instead and i couldn't be happier. I use the ZALMAN CNPS9500A-LED 92mm 2 Ball CPU Cooler and my PC never gets past 40 degrees Celsius even under full load. Honestly everyone on this forum is going to tell you to use something different. So just go with what you think is best.
