Hoping to get some advice from you guys. My son is wanting to build himself a new machine pretty much exclusively for gaming. He has a budget of £1000 but is building from scratch so needs everything!!

Cheers in advance

On your marks

Pretty much what I would have suggested. Maybe a headphone/mic if he would rather that over the speakers.

I'm not a fan of OCZ PSU's personally though.
