hi, currently running an old NVidia 680i sli with a intel Q6600@240 and 4gb ram and a radion HD 4800 card unsre of power supply all in a antec 900 case,all drives currently ide so will need them to don't really do any gaming nowadays but may do in the future, don't really spend much more than £450 and to go down the intel side, I have looked I the bundle but to be honest im out of touch with things, just want something a bit quicker and able to upgrade if need be in the future. thanks
 
 
I could go up to £450 with a psu just incase mines not upto it, unsure what it is without taking it out and looking sure its an antec psu but unsure of wattage, im ok with my old faithfull antec 900 case tho thanks
 
and can collect instore so knocks a bit off lol, and I can make do with gfx with it being a 4800 hd series I think theyre a bit power hungry so ive read

I suppose upgrading to the k version cpu is amust just incase, roughly what what the overclock potential be for this build, thanks, I may even be able to lose the 1tb hardrive as I store most things on a external
 
You should be able to get to 4.4ghz with k chip and a good cooler quite easily. I have also change to faster ram.

if I went closer to 500 what would you recommend stulid, or would you have another harddrive say a 1tb, also would this set up be ok to overclock if I knew how to lol
 
 
im not a gamer to be honest although I,d prob play say farcry 4 now and again so I suppose stock cooler would probably be ok due think, I,d also imagine this set up would run very well compared to my old faithfull q6600 lol
 
that basket looks just the job, ill throw in a dvd drive to get it up to 500ish, thanks stulid you know your stuff and as always xxxthot at helping people out, ps due ever leave this forum lol
