Hi all,

This will be my first build and i've been looking and thought i'd go down the sandy bridge route!

I have a monitor, mouse, keyboard and hard drive and so far i've came up with this:

= £467.23

What i'm stuck with now is the rest for the build, such as a case, PSU, gfx card etc.

I give myself a £700 so within that limit would be great! Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

What i'm wondering now is, i dont use my PC an awful lot but when i do its mainly for gaming. Do you think i should stick with the i5 2500 then get hte H67 mobo? Or do you think keeping these choices and overclocking it?

I really appreciate everyones help.
