Very tasty

If you don't need onboard wifi the Ultra Gaming is a bit cheaper and actually more USB ports with an otherwise similar feature set afaicr.

You could go with the RMx PSU as it's better quality, quieter, and could also support SLI if that were of interest.

5 day fast track is half the price and it's only 2 working days difference.

What are you upgrading from out of interest?

I went with the Strix purely for Manufacturer preference, the last gigabyte I had (albeit a long time ago) fried once.

Upgrading from my signature mate, will be taking one of the SSDs with me and the 1080ti, spare 780ti going back in to the rig.

Reasons are that I sold some Crypto during December and fancy acquiring myself some shinies. I'm going to give the existing rig a service as I've had a fair few temperature problems since October, apply some new thermal paste and whatnot and give to a family member who'll be chuffed to have it.

I'll look in to the gigabyte board and power supply, cheers

I have an OEM Win 10 full licence

You may need to link this to your MS account and unlink it from the old PC in order to do that. It didn't used to be possible (or at least legit) to use an OEM licence on another PC - now it can be possible but you should look up what it involves if you don't already know.

Should have mentioned its a new key, bought a few from softwaregeeks not long back.

Thanks for your help

I may an addition in the morning will post a follow up on this thread.
