I need help with a light gaming (Dota2)/every day use desktop for a friend. As per title says, it's up to £650. Less being better. As a note he's not going to overclock (crying shame I know). Storage drives will be provided from old pc.

Ow and one last thing! It does need to be silent or close to,



No peripherals needed or a monitor. The only thing is he is quite an audiophile so a dedicated sound card would probably be good, I've got no idea about them so yer.

What I've got in mind is;

I5 4670
270 or a 270x (what's the difference?).
Ga-z87-hd3 motherboard.
Samsung evo 840 120gig
Corsair cx 600 v2

The case Can just be a standard looking case that will keep things quiet and cool (enough). The ram 8 gig of what ever is cheapest at the time.

Would you guys change anything, would a 8320 be a better option? I'm struggling to get a build together with a sound card that comes under budget.

Any input and thought would be great!
