*Wonders why it was only 1500* *doesn't notice its in pounds* lol - Reason for not going Haswell? I think a 750w PSU would run that fine, unless you plan to SLI in the future, I suggest adding a SSD for a boot drive, like a Samsung 840 EVO 120gb that will make Windows boot up in seconds! Mwahaha!

First off - Is a BluRay Burner drive an absolute must? If not, you can save a LOT of £'s by just selecting a normal one!
I would suggest this build : http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/3kEkx <-- Added in a 250GB SSD - but because I removed the BD-Burner and replaced with regular DVD-write drive, the total was only ~£30 more. I then replaced the Platinum 860W with a Gold 750W PSU and now the total cost is lower than at start!

Well I brought everything and I did add the 250GB SSD in the end. Thanks for the suggestion Ashardis, The BluRay burner wasn't really a must but it was more for convenience. Thanks for the help.
