This would be a huge help to me, this site has done me good over the years and I would happily reward whomevers parts I use with a steam game of their choosing. So my pc finally caved and I need a new one that can handle games as well as streaming, which I make a small but nice living off. I don't need to play games at the highest setting but I do need a CPU that can handle 720 streaming while playing, newer games In particular were killing my old rig.

If this can be done for sub £800 that would be great, if it can't I'm afraid I can't go much higher. I'm not aiming to run games on ultra with 1080 streaming I just need to be able to run games and stream without there bing hitches in either area.

Much obliged for any help I get

without an aftermarket cpu cooler that is about as cheap as you get, you could drop the ssd and keep the cooler and that would put the build under 850 basically the only way to fit in a new copy of windows is the skimp on performance. However you could use the windows 8 3 month trial and buy windows 7 once the windows 8 trial is done. Actually, i think you can transfer licenses to other computers if you contact microsoft
