Hi this is what I have so far, I want a Gaming PC and i suppose my budget is £800 but preferably around £700. I think i will SLI in the near future, by the way i'm just wondering(noob) if you SLI graphics card can you use just one monitor?
Also what is the difference between the motherboard i listed and the Gigabyte Z77X-D3H Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard. I have a perfectly fine optical drive(not the best but fine), i have a good monitor 22" and FullHD and LED. I already have an OS, it is windows 7 ultimate 64bit. I just want the the 16GB ram so that is a defo and i might do some video redering and perhaps some video capturing using camstasia. I'm gonna get the GTX 570 as a gift and i am wondering if i can SLI a GTX 570 and a GTX 580 and what is the difference between the GTX 580/570 OEM and the retail, they are both refurbs i think by OCs?

I think i might want an SSD but i dont know.
Also i am going to overclock the CPU and should i overclock the GPU? Also because of this should i get a much better cooling system. Should i get liquid cooling or just normal fans? I want everything to stay pretty cool inside.
