Thanks for the thoughts Wissel. A Z97 is not that much expensive either. Dabs is selling at 100 pounds. I think my list is nearly completed. Thanks all for y our input. Appreciated.

Probably not

I think I am going back to the drawing board again and look at the cost. If I go with i5 4690K, 16GB 1600MHz ram and onboard display card to start with. Then I will have some rooms for maybe choosing a different motherboard. To many of your points, I will have a noticeable different from my...

My main use of the PC apart from daily usual stuff are Lightroom and other photos processing software. I have visitors coming from overseas so might be able to get it relatively cheaper. I never bother with on board display but things may have moved on... I have two monitors, one dvi on HD and...

Good point and I can shift the 50 quid to justify the display card upgrade. I am so out-of-date with the hardware things. Thanks

Interesting, the QVL supports > 1600 but they don't have the Savage on the list unless I missed it. I probably will never notice the different but would interest from people who know, 2400MHz CL11 vs 1866MHz CL9. THB arad85, i7 vs i5, I was just thinking I won't upgrade for probably another 6...

Thanks. Looks like I didn't do enough homework. Know any other board I should consider ? Or otherwise I will go for the 1600 version. Thanks

My vote on 17-40 too. Have used it a few days (borrowing from a friend). very pleased with the result. If you not happy with it then you still have a chance to get the 16-35 on the actual birthday day perhaps :p

Has anyone tried ZOMEI? Seems a China made cheaper version. It won't be as good quality but I wonder how much different? Thanks. Art

Thanks Alastair, interested in the bis_is one, will pm cheers.

Hi All, Any recommendation on a good M42 to EOS adaptor please? I bought one Carl Zeiss 135mm recently and it comes with a cheap (without chip) one. It works but the focus confirmation would be nice. There are so many on ebay but any recommendation would be appreciated. Thanks! Art
