Just thought I'd mention, would this be a cheaper alternative?-

It's only about £13 difference but it's £13 you can put towards your new GPU.

Another thing I realised I should get is a new headset, so would
the Logitech Digital Precision PC Gaming Headset be a good choice? I'm not sure if there's much to choose between one headset and another, but I'd not want to spend more than £30 on one, and I'm hoping that I could still get it all for under £450.

I'm using one of
these and find it plenty good enough for talkin' and hearin' all kinds of fancy stuff. Spend whatever you want, but I don't bother buying too well on these things, they tend to break after a year or so.

Quite frankly, whatever I get would be an improvement over my current headset!

If I hadn't just had to buy mums birthday pressie I'd've treated myself to one. But I've already spent more than my pay packet this month. Gotta draw the line somewhere.
Oh, hush you.
