Tired of not being able to play games I want but my choices seem a bit extreme (overall price). Never built my own pc before, looking to spend around £1000 at most. Below is a build I would like to have but is a bit expensive, any better suggestions?
-NZXT H440 Tower Case - White
-Intel Core i7 i7-4790K CPU (Quad Core 4GHz, Socket H3 LGA-1150)
-Corsair (CW-9060021-WW) Hydro Series H100i GTX 240mm Extreme Performance All-In-One Liquid CPU Cooler
-Gigabyte Geforce GTX 980 TI GEF GTX980TI Internal Graphic Card 6144 MB
-HyperX FURY Series 16GB (x2)
-Samsung SSD 850 Evo 2,5 500GB SATA III
-Corsair CP-9020073-UK Professional Platinum Series HX850i ATX/EPS 850W Power Supply Unit
-MSI Z97S Sli Krait Editoin Motherboard
* All help appreciated *

If you are looking to cut back to save green back.....well that reference may not work in your area..... I would suggest lowering a few things.
The case, yeah it is sweet, but do you really NEED that super fancy awesome case? Would a less awesome case suffice? More than likely.
Cooler, yeah Water AiO awesome! But isn't completely necessary, depending on your ambient Temps for where the PC will be, you may be fine running a stick cooler until you have more money to spend on the bad ass AiO.
RAM, 16GB is sweet, but 8GB will be good on ya. I would down grade that for sure if it saves funds. With such an easy upgrade to do down the road, save for more later.
SSD could be smaller, and if you can find a HDD for more storage as well, or take on from a work computer....
There are a few things I would suggest. Spending money on majors like the MOBO, GPU, and PSU will last you and would be SUCH a pain to upgrade.
Just my 2 cents....pounds....quid.....does that work there?
