Gaming PC help

So bit stuck on which machine to buy at the end of the month. Prefer going for a pre-built one and have been looking at this as I do lan a lot, so power and looks are quite important

Was going to put 2 x 970's in and go with two solid states. My dilemma is the price is coming out at £2064.94.

Now do I go for it, or get a better spec machine for the same price that may not look so nice.

Ahhh, please help really can't decide.

Thanks.

Hi Stulid,

My current PC is a small form factor with case being a Coolermaster Elite 130. Only thing I've found is when it gets really hot in places it doesn't always cope too well. I'm not too bothered by size of the machine, as transporting it has never been a problem.

Just this time round I fancied something that has power, but also looks pretty decent as well, plus always had a thing for white setups.

I changed the options to an I-7, 970 sli, corsair 540 case and 16gb 2133mhz ram and it came to £1605 inc.

Hi Micky,

Thanks for that, system looks pretty good.

As it is in budget, would you suggest I go for a 980ti, or a Titan X.

Get a single card can always add another at a later date . What res do you plan on gaming at ?

I have a 4k monitor & a 144hz one. Plan is to switch between the two, as single player games will be on the 4k one, but when I play CS:GO I prefer to play with the 144hz.

Thanks for the help, will go with the 980ti, as never been a fan of AMD.
