Hey im looking to build a new pc. I know what i want but could use some advice on where the best place to buy the parts is or if there is somewhere i can get the pc built cheaper than buying the components and building it myself. The PC Im planning to build is £600-700 the lower the better Antec 300 Case Gigabyte GA-Z77M-D3H Intel I5 3570k Nvidia GTX 660 8GB DDR3 [2x4GB] 500w PSU 500GB Sata HDD Feedback and suggestions are more than welcome this system will be used primarily to play GW2 on Medium/High in WVW Zergs thats why i have chosen a high end cpu so i dont have invisible invaders running around like i do on my current system. xD If anyone has personal experience with the graphics card and GW2 i would appreciate comments since its the only aspect im unsure about. -Angully
Seems like a pretty solid build. I'm pretty sure most people would recommend www.scan.co.uk as your retailer - when you hit 25 posts you get free postage! Also, you should really post the exact model of PSU, and probably the HDD and RAM aswell.
I recommend ebuyer generally speaking for PC parts. After more than one bad customer service experience I try to avoid scan as best I can these days.
That seems pretty good already. You could swap the motherboard for a GA-Z77-D3H, which is the ATX version of the board you currently have on the list. You'd get more PCI-E slots and a VRM heatsink for the same price. Also make sure to get a proper branded PSU such as Corsair. As for where to buy, it depends on where you live.
The PSU http://www.scan.co.uk/products/500w...20005-uk-80-eff-80-plus-quiet-fan-atx-v23-psu The Ram http://www.scan.co.uk/products/8gb-...c3-14900-(1866)-non-ecc-cas-9-10-9-27-xmp-15v Im open to any suggestions

The RAM seems a bit expensive. Are there any cheaper 1600MHz kits available? edit: This kit should do perfectly: http://www.scan.co.uk/products/8gb-...pc3-12800-(1600)-non-ecc-cas-9-9-9-24-xmp-15v
