RJC · 31 Jan 2014 at 20:09

Just the main parts really, like memory and PSU make and model.

Case so we know the motherboard will fit in.

Doomedspeed · 31 Jan 2014 at 20:09

My spec above will suit you fine then,

You can even go SLI if the mood takes you.

MatthewC1991 · 31 Jan 2014 at 20:14

yes doomedspeed that is what i was thinking about. wasnt sure thought what GPU everyone would recommend though

Akagi · 31 Jan 2014 at 20:26

I'd pretty much recommend the same one.

Nothing wrong with my first spec, but if it were me, I'd go with the 780, not the Ti...

Add another 780 later if you feel 1 isn't enough:

YOUR BASKET
1 x MSI Geforce GTX 780 Gaming Edition OC 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card £369.95
1 x Intel Core i7-4770K 3.50GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor - OEM £249.95
