Just as a 'close the loop' item, the final spec was:

Motherboard ASUS P8Z77-V LE
CPU i5 7350K IvyBridge
RAM 16GB Corsair XMS3
SSD Crucial M4 128GB
HDD WD 1TB Caviar Black
PSU Cooler Master Silent Pro M2 620W
GPU MSI GTX560 Ti Hawk 1GB / 980MHz
Optical Samsung DL DVD RW
Case Fractal Design Define R3


The GPU & PSU came from Overclockers, the rest from eBuyer.

Total cost in at £878 ... best 'built' price I could get was £1072 ...
so made sense to get the parts in.

To be fair Overclockers only charge £75 for build, but the cost to get
all of parts from them was too high.
