Looks like ponder has got this covered, but I still keep my eye on this thread and you can still PM or ask me anything and I will be there to help.

Guaranteed you will be hearing from me again .

So you agree with the Potter combo and sapphire R9 380x etc?

This shopping around is making me doubt everything.

I know you only want the best bang for your buck, but trust me you won't regret either the i5 or i7 bundle from PotterH with a 4GB R9 380x.

Yeah that's exactly what I want. I don't want to be disappointed which I doubt I will be.

This PC needs to last a few years so want the best I can get now in my budget.

It will last you some time, my last PC lasted +- 8 years before I upgraded. you are getting really good parts.

It really is something else.

So PotrerH has stock but he says they all used items. That's shouldn't be a problem hey?

OK I am going to order the GPU and PSU now, just want to confirm that these choices are the best choices still:

Sapphire R9 380X (in the R5k price range)

VS 550

Thanks.

Those are still the best for you to buy and i wouldn't worry about the parts from PotterH being second hand, they will be pretty close to new without actually being new.

Yeah not too concerned to be honest.

Now onto Headphones - anything you could recommend on TakeAlot perhaps (still have some vouchers) and also a mouse and keyboard?

Those really do come down to user preference. I have always been a big fan of Logitech mice, I use the G400s.

Is a more powerful PSU needed for my build?
I don't plan on upgrading that GPU for a very long time.

No it's not, the system under full load should maybe 450W depending on amount of drives etc.

I was thinking of these:

G430 - mainly as I can then use them with XBOX One too. Anything better in that price range?

Also need to find mouse and keyboard :(

I honestly have no idea, I use Logitech 5.1 speakers and a Logitech G400s mouse, you will have to wait for someone more knowledgeable about peripherals.
 
So a update.

Order has been placed for Sapphire R9 380X and Corsair VS 550 from Rebel Tech - just waiting for order to be confirmed.

All I need now is for PotterH to send me confirmation he has bundles so I can make payment on that.

The case, keyboard and mouse I will look on TakeAlot for as I still have vouchers.

Then I think that will be everything!
