Hi, I require some assistance from you kind people in choosing a new PC for around this price please. Basically I am looking for a desktop which will be able to play current and future games without needing an upgrade as long as possible. I am fine with playing games on a low setting as long as the frame-rate is passable.

Code:
OcUK Gamer Xi - Intel Haswell Midi Tower Gaming PC Configurator

BitFenix Neos ATX Tower Black/Black

Intel Core i7-4790K 4.00GHz (Devil's Canyon) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail

Asus TUF Sabertooth Z97 Mark 2 Intel Z97 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard

Prolimatech 45 CPU Cooler - 92mm

TeamGroup Vulcan ORANGE 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-17100C11 2133MHz Dual Channel Kit (TLAED38G2133HC11ADC01)

KFA2 GeForce GTX 970 EX OC

Kingston HyperX 3K SSD 120GB 2.5

Seagate Barracuda 3TB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache - OEM (ST3000DM001) HDD

OcUK 24x DVD±RW SATA ReWriter (Black) - OEM

SuperFlower Golden Green HX 550W

This is my attempt so far but I am not very knowledgeable concerning hardware so some parts may not be needed or be superseded by another part (for example should I reduce the processor for more RAM, is the PSU high enough? etc). I am upgrading from a laptop so I have no parts and I am not confident enough to build it from scratch so getting prebuilt. Thanks for any help you experts can offer me!

Hi,

If you ask customer services then they could build a PC to specs from me for say £60, worth asking as that way you get what you want.

For example,

Total : £1,147.87 (includes shipping : ).



And once it built thats your money gone.

So you have a bigger SSD (games are getting massive, GTA V is 65GB it has been announced).

SLI ready board and PSU so you can add a 2nd GFX card.
