£700 Gaming Build.

Highlands · 24 Apr 2013 at 23:12

Hello!

I'm looking for a gaming rig for a family member that doesn't require a monitor/OS/keyboard/mouse, I already have them ordered. I will also be building this myself and won't require it to be made for me.

I'd love it to have an SSD and a modular power supply.

Thanks in advance!

Can't go wrong at all with Idleman's spec. I built a very similar one after taking his advice and have never been happier

Nice spec Idle.

surely dropping the ssd and getting a 7950 would be better though?
obviously you could add an ssd later on.
