So if you was to change something what would you change and why?

I'd be nervous about spending that much money on a motherboard. Particularly when it only has one PCI-E X16 slot.

For a £300 motherboard I'd expect it to have at least two X16 slots. If you are only using one graphics card I'd say aim for something a lot cheaper. If you want two graphics cards, find one that has two X16 speed lanes.

Multiple Good and great reviews bout 1/2 the price of the G1, two X16 slots also.

Others IMO are fine, make sure the RAM is on that mobo's support list, whatever one you choose
