Dood - Disgaea reference? I love the disgaea games.

Let us know when you watch a YouTube video on how to build a computer what you think, a guy called Austin Evans does a really simple one to follow which could be a good start.

before i started looking at prebuilds i did a bit of research and i really dont want to spend that money and be the one that could mess it up i know every one on here builds there own but for now id really rather get a pre build im still struggling with that as i cant make a decision or know what to get never mind putting my own together
 
thats exactly my problem i cant make a decision at the best of times iv played with around with the spec and got it too this but dont know if the cooling and psu is enough, what do you think ?

Is the psu going to hinder performance it's one thing I can't change is it going to be an issue were performance is concerned as I'm not going to be adding another card to it as the 290 I've read is one of the best cards I can get

I've cut out an ssd an out it one the graphics card otherwise I'd be on 280 instead of the 290
 
iv not bought it yet its going to be just a 1080p 23 incher i imagine from what iv seen so far iv also just been playing around with another system config and come up with this for slightly more

this is £1150. This is my problem i think iv found a system and some one says change this lol so i do that then the same happens again ha. The SSD is not something i see as important as ill see the benefit in putting the extra money on to a good GPU.
 
cool so i should be good. i imagine once i get this over time ill end up making my own changes to it in years to come i just want this is a starting point so i can change the psu and gpu over time
