Building a Gaming Pc

rich204 · 14 May 2009 at 23:35

Hi, I'm wanting to build a Gaming Pc. I have £1400 to spend and am slightly flexible on that figure if needed. This includes a moniter, am looking at getting a 24" screen.
I already have mouse ,keyboard and OS.
If you guys could reccomend a spec for me that would be great.

The more information you give us, the better the answer.

What size monitor. How many monitors. What do you want it to do besides gaming. Have you built a computer before. Will you overclock it. What research have you done into this?
