Can't see anything. Did you post competitor links? Not allowed mate.

R-evans · 11 Feb 2013 at 20:49

List the component names rather than linking.

Idleman · 11 Feb 2013 at 20:50

All your links have been starred out, as you are not allowed to link to competitors.
I would suggest you find the equivalent components in the OCUK link below and then post.

Yes it is good, what do you need it for?

Best thing to do, state a price and the guys here will spec you a good system.

dacads · 11 Feb 2013 at 20:54

I would go with a different cooler such as the hyper 612s or hyper 212 evo. Other than that looks great mate (Y)

Stating that you're wanting to game on it in the OP, I would say drop to a 3570k, 7950, 8GB ram and then put a SSD in there. If you wanted to keep it around the same price and on 1080p gaming.

Also look into home plugs rather than wireless if possible.

jaackla · 11 Feb 2013 at 20:55

jaackla · 11 Feb 2013 at 20:56
