    290, 390 or a 970 are better ideas for 1080p imo, 390X is my go-to 1440p card.

    Nothing wrong with the 390X now, but it's gonna be OP for a little bit, will be caught up with in time.

    Perfect other than that, maybe switch the PSU to a BeQuiet or Corsair but TT are good too. 500w is enough for the cards I've listed, 550w for a 390X

    Ok so I swapped the GPU with this http://www.hardwareversand.de/en/4096+MB/179486/MSI+GeForce+GTX+970+Gaming+4G%2C+4GB+GDDR5.article and the PSU with this http://www.hardwareversand.de/en/400+-+500+Watts/82763/be+quiet!+PURE+POWER+L8+500W.article

    Would I better to go with a 500gb SSD rather then 2 250gb SSD? and also does the case come with enough fans or would I need to buy extras?

    I prefer to keep my drives separate for the few euro saved, depends on the person.

    Value for money wise, the 500gb is cheaper and saves on PSU slots

    I went to order this but get the following message on the delivery screen:

    Unfortunately we cannot deliver your ordered goods to the specified address. This may have one of the following reasons:

    In case of P.O. Box addresses please try to enter a street and housenumber instead. We can't send your items to a P.O. Box.
    We can not deliver some of the the selected items to your specified country. Please try to enter a valid address in Germany or remove items classified as bulk goods (in most cases LCD-TV's greater than 32 Inch). The Pickup-Service is also only available for german Addresses.
    Baskets containing USK-18 articles as well as bulk goods cannot be shipped. Please split your basket into two separate orders.


    I have checked the basket and do not see anything that would be considered bulk or has USK -18 that I can see, for the zip code I inputted 0000 and house number N/A as I do not have one. It also doesnt say which item cannot bbe shipped to Ireland.

    Any ideas what am doing wrong here or what item is preventing this? Only thing I changed was the GPU from MSI to the Gigabyte version from the items listed.
