Hello, I'm looking to get my first gaming pc and I'm looking for some pre built suggestions.

I will be using it for AAA games and world of warcraft, targeting 1080p 60FPS high-ultra settings.

I'm going to be using my tv as a monitor and I already have a mouse and keyboard.

I'm looking to spend around £800 and that needs to include windows 10 and a ssd.

I already had a few suggestions in "general hardware" but I thought I would post it in the right section this time.

I would agree with the above but my personal choice would be to get 500GB ssd and not Hard drive. Less capacity but more simple in the long run. Get an extra storage drive later on if you really need it. Until I edited video i was fine with just 500GB. Just manage your game installs a little wisely and you should be fine.
 
Thanks for the reply Gibliotech . My computer knowledge is basically 0 but comparing it to a build "lemin" posted , his seems to be better and there basically the same price.

Here's a link to lemin's build, correct me if I'm wrong. I don't mean to be rude, I'm just looking to get the most out of my money.

That link is not working for me i don't think. It gave an error but the spec seems right.

Managed to get an RX480 in the budget, so yes, looks quite a bit better. and a larger SSD too. How has that worked!?

I would assume that the case and powersupply, the unlisted components, would be better quality in the Titan Neutron. Its off that that makes up the difference to get a RX480 in the build though...

The case is a "kolink aviator micro atx" , it doesn't list the psu but I'm guessing its kolink aswell. They seem to be in quite a few of the ocuk builds, so I would assume there good enough.

Here's a link to my other post , hopefully it works. http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18747465

This is why I have always stuck to console gaming, the amount of options is overwhelming.
Any help is greatly appreciated
 
I've just checked the link lemin posted as well and to be honest for the slight increase in price I would say it's worth going with his build, you're right about the power supply as well it's a Kolink 500w and they certainly are good quality.

Roverno's point about the SSD is a fair one as well, if you manage your game installs you wouldn't really need anything bigger but it does depend on how many games and what else you may end up doing with the system.
 
This would be my final suggestion at this stage. It is more expensive but worth that extra 25 or so if you can afford it.

This has a shipping charge on top. 825 without shipping.
