Hi OC,

I have a budget of around £800 to build a gaming PC. I'd like to be able to run BF3, Skyrim, TDU2, GTA 4 etc on high or very high. And the build will need to include the monitor (at least 1920x1080). I will also be running Fraps alongside most of my games (I make YouTube videos).

Price will also include shipping + VAT (will be ordering from overclockers).

I would like to have a good looking PC with the potential to overclock in the future (I'm still a n00b at building PC's, only having built one before with old parts at College).

I don't need keyboard/mouse/speakers as I am already using those for my current PC (Dell XPS Laptop).

Thanks in advance!

Zona.

You can add a heatsink later, you don't have to spend silly money. £25-30 gives you plenty of options. If you can stretch to £850

Better case and a good value cooler, the TR120 is a little cheaper but this Macho120 Idleman also used is definitely worth considering
