Looking to spend less then £1300.

I would love a Sapphire Radeon R9 290X Tri-X "BF4 Edition" included.

And an O.S

I will mainly be playing BF4 and other FPS.

Not interested in building myself so there must be room for Overclockers to build.

No peripherals needed.

I'm looking for the most future proof PC possible as £1k is a lot of money to me. I have no preference over AMD or Intel.

If possible, please build it on:

and post the build!

Thanks

The GPU you want isn't in the options list, so you'll have to ask customer support to add that for you. It will cost approximately the same as a 780, so I put one in as a place holder.

For the sake of comparison, here's the same build as above (with a much better PSU) with the components bought separately:

EDIT: Just noticed it is the 290X you want. As Lee said below, it's not really worth the £120 over the 290. If you really want a 290X you're going to have to build it yourself to get a balanced system for under £1300.

Beginning to realise that now ;)

Will be happy settling for a custom cooled 290!
