A lot of stuff coming together, watching closely for how you do the reservoir!

Nice build, thanks for sharing

I reckon there are too many companies for a price fixing conspiracy there is just too much on the demand side of supply and demand equation pushing prices up. Hopefully as new fabs and processes come on line the cost will start dropping again but that is not likely till end of this year at the...

Unfortunately it is a double whammy of 20% drop in £ value and an increase in memory prices which is pushing up RAM and SSD's.

That sounds good lioke the sound of price crashes just can't wait till 2019! From what I have read the whole of this year will be high prices with maybe some small increases at the end of this year but likely early 2018 when prices will go down to what they were last year.

Agree with others saying 1500X would be worth it. The other good thing about the AM4 B350 board for the 1500x is it gives you lots of options to upgrade in the future either with more cores or in 3 years time with the latest AMD tech.

I agree with Danny75 build will have a lot more Cpu power and will feel a lot snappier because of ssd. Second hand 970 is a good call which should be accessible for £100 or less.

Yea crazy prices, I'm building soon and want a 1tb ssd too and if I would have built last year it would have been over £100 cheaper.

Really interesting with the water reservoir, I am looking forward to seeing this come together.

That would be my bet, 1600 which includes the cooler and and much faster graphics card.

Appreciate the info on that RAM as that is one of the ones I am looking to buy.

Looks good, you got any wider pictures of how it looks setup with monitor, keyboard and mouse?

Great idea, love the CAD renders. I am looking forward to seeing this come together as looks like it will be pretty great!:D

Really coming along, looking forward to seeing it completed.

I would make sure i5 2500k is overclocked to ~4.5Ghz. 8GB Rx 480's are great value now at ~£200 so that would be my choice to max out 1080p (pressuring you monitor is 60Hz). For me I would definitely look to upgrade for a larger ssd as this would at least for me make a big difference.

Strange testing with 2400MHz memory and not comparing it in gaming to similar priced Intel offerings.

I missed that AM4 breakdown, a nice reference point/ sales graphic.

Glade you got it sorted and thanks for the info.

Love the look so far, can see myself building in a desk case in the future.

Great result thanks for the info on the ram kit with the Tomahawk, looks good.
