Hello. I'm planning to upgrade my pc and I need advice if all the parts which I choose are good and compatible.
My budget is around 500£. That's what I choose atm:
Cpu: i5 4460 -
Mobo: Msi h81m-e35 -
Ram: 8gb Corsair ddr3 1600mhz -
Gpu: Evga gtx 770 2gb -
Psu: Cooler Master gm550w -
All together is around 520£

Hi,

Buy from OcUK.

I think you can start with this bundle,

YOUR BASKET
1 x Asus H81M-K Intel Core i5 DIY Micro ATX Motherboard, CPU & RAM Bundle £225.97
Total : £235.57 (includes shipping : £8.00).




This PSU,

YOUR BASKET
1 x SuperFlower Golden Green HX 550W "80 Plus Gold" Power Supply - Black £59.99
Total : £69.59 (includes shipping : £8.00).




Then this GFX card,

YOUR BASKET
1 x XFX Radeon R9 290 DD 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (R9-290A-EDFD) £229.99
Total : £239.59 (includes shipping : £8.00).



Which you can get £30 off - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18631947

But you will need to take the middle HDD cage out of the NZXT case to fit it in as it is 295mm long.
-------------------------------

So all in all it comes to this,

YOUR BASKET
1 x XFX Radeon R9 290 DD 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (R9-290A-EDFD) £229.99
1 x Asus H81M-K Intel Core i5 DIY Micro ATX Motherboard, CPU & RAM Bundle £225.97
1 x SuperFlower Golden Green HX 550W "80 Plus Gold" Power Supply - Black £59.99
Total : £525.55 (includes shipping : £8.00).



And minus £30 for the gfx card deal and that's £500 which is your budget.

It was hiding away. thanks for the spot.

I've edited out the name and competitor prices.
 
Sorry I just didn't know that. I will edit my post . The only reason why it's need to be from there is coz I want to take for pay monthly credit (can't afford to spend in one go) and I need it as soon as possible . With my current rig I can't play fc4 which I really want to play.
