A 670 and 8320 would be more than enough at 1080p, for me anyway.

I can't imagine many who use a SSD wanting to go back to not having one for the sake of small gains from the CPU or GPU to be honest.

Yeah that 670 with the 8320 spec you did was ok. The 8320 does suck more juice at stock than a i5K which is overclocked though. I'd rather have an intel setup myself as would many others.

The B grade 1TB HDD is false economy for the sake of another couple of quid I'd rather have a new one with a full warranty

True, but that is not the way your earlier quote came across.

I don`t suppose many would, but the OP probably does`nt have one, so he wont miss what he has`nt had.

It's true, I would too, but it was needed to remain under budget

Edit: I'd rather Intel too, but with this budget and those needs I'd be more than happy with the AMD + others components.

No idea why it came across differently

I'm just meaning I'd "sacrifice" some CPU power (aka by going AMD rather than Intel), in order to include an SSD, were it me.
