    Looking for sites with PC parts discounts.

    Need: mid-level Intel CPU, Nvidia GTX 970, 16GB RAM, a Motherboard & a silent-ish Case.

    Hardwareversand.de had a few things slightly discounts on Friday,
    Amazon UK doesn't seem to have much today in this area.

    I'm building a desktop PC for Gaming & Solidworks/Fusion360, Cinema4D/Keyshot, Photoshop & maybe some other productivity apps for product design:
    already picked up a PSU & SSD from Amazon UK on Friday.

    Amazon France have a gtx 970 for 299. Great price. Don't know if that includes the free game though.

    Cheers, I had seen that HERE- a good £50 cheaper than UK.
    Not a Black Friday / Cyber Monday discount - but still might be one of the better deals going.

    & yeah does include a game:
    From 6 October 2015 to 14 December 2015 inclusive, buy an Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 Ti, 980, 970 and receive a free * a code to download Assassin's Creed Syndicate or Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege.

    Would appreciate help deciding on a motherboard & ram
    Mobo - recommendation for a H170 ATX ?
    Ram - 8 vs 16GB? If I'm going Skylake & H170 I have to get DDR4?
    Case - FRACTAL DESIGN Define R5 - €106 Amazon UK
    CPU: i5-6500 3.2GHz Skylake/1151 €197 Amazon FR
    GPU: GIGABYTE nVIDIA GTX970 €299 Amazon FR

    have already bought:
    SanDisk SSD PLUS 240 GB €58 Amazon UK
    Corsair RM850i €127 Amazon UK [overkill in wattage, but might SLI in future]

    re the motherboard, have you considered used stock on Dabs?

    Both of these z170's are coming in at €120 delivered. I've bought quite a bit of used stock from Dabs and the excellent condition are normally just opened boxes.

    You do get only 6 months warranty with it though.
