Hi all, Im looking for advice on a build so I've come here! Budget:£800 max (including display, but possibly excluding postage) Main uses of intended build: Gaming, Photoshop (only amateur level though), general surfing etc. Parts required:Everything except a PSU and OS. Previous build information:No previous build Monitor resolution:No monitor yet! Storage requirements: No specifics Will you be overclocking: Big Yes! Any motherboard requirements: Nothing specific Extra information about desired system: I'm swaying towards an i5 2500k, and Im ok with buying now and swapping the mobo when the recall happens. Ideally id like a gtx 560 as my gpu to. But i'll take all suggestions! Thanks in advance
What kind of display are you thinking of? I posted this build in another thread, but it sorta fits here: You say you don't need an operating system or PSU so if we minus £135 from the total there there's more than enough space in that build to get an i5-2500K and accompanying motherboard and 560: i5-2500K (£162) MSI P67A-GD55 (£129) - doesn't have to be this GTX 560 (£200) price difference from parts there: +£173 minus OS & PSU: -£135 total w/ SB stuff in it and 560 minus OS & PSU: £773 You're in budget with a bit to spare! You might be able to use the extra to get a somewhat better case or better motherboard or better monitor or you could be happy with being under budget ^^.
