Hi. How different are these 2 PC as i was going to buy parts but overclockers will not build it up if i brought in parts but will change certain things in the system config if i phone up. Originaly i was going to get this PC in parts.

MSI GeForce GTX 670 OC 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

Intel Core i7-3770K 3.50GHz (Ivybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor (77W) - Retail

Gigabyte Z77X-UD3H Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard (SAME)

BitFenix Shinobi XL Case

Antec High Current Pro 850W Modular '80 Plus Gold' Power Supply

Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache - OEM

Sandisk Extreme SSD 120GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive

Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-Bit - OEM

Alpenföhn K2 Mount Doom CPU Cooler (Socket LGA1156/1155/1366/AM2/AM2+/AM3/AM3+/FM1)

Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit

LG GH24NS90 24x DVD±RW SATA ReWriter (Black) - OEM

But as i said overclockers will not build if i buy in parts. How ever i have seen a similar PC in the system config centre in section Intel Z77 Ivybridge 10100i Configurator - Gaming System and there is a few things different like graphic card make but same power and also cpu fan and power supply. This PC is

Intel Z77 Ivybridge 10100i Configurator - Gaming System

BitFenix Shinobi XL Full Tower Gaming Case - Black

Intel Core i7 3770K 3.50GHz (Ivybridge) Socket 1155 Processor - Retail

Intel Stock Cooler (None overclocked systems)

Gigabyte Z77X-D3H Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard

Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB 1600MHz CAS9 Memory Kit

KFA2 GeForce GTX 670 2048MB GDDR5

Sandisk Extreme SSD 120GB SATA-3 SSD

Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 1TB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache - OEM

OcUK 22x DVD±RW SATA ReWriter (Black)

OnBoard Sound Card

OCZ ZX Series 850W PSU

Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit

Sharkoon 120mm 2000RPM Fan

Subtotal £1,152.24
£1,382.69 inc VAT

Just wondering how different the graphic card and fan and power supply is to the one i am going to change to?. The bottom spec is using just the overclockers system config using Intel Z77 Ivybridge 10100i Configurator - Gaming System and the top spec is buying in parts.

Thanks for any info and hope you understand the ????

They are both pretty much the same except for the second one has different RAM and a smaller storage drive. If you want to make tweaks to the machine drop down to an i5 and lower the PSU to 600w to save some cash for the Steam summer sales or something.

i7 isn't really necessary for one 670.
