I'll be playing League of Legends, battlefield 4 and some other games I've not found yet tbh; hopefully RPG, sandbox/large scale strategy games/fps'

Would really like an SSD, only a 128Gb or so for OS and maybe a few games

Obviously Sata 3 for said SSD

Need a good amount of USB

Motherboard may need to be able to support a Sound card such as this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SC-012-AS&tool=3 or this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SP-149-CL&groupid=701&catid=11 or have Green black and Orange headphone jack inputs on the rear

8Gb of RAM

Would like haswell but not too fussed, if not, i'd be happy with an i5

This will be my first build :)

Thank you :cool:

Asus boards are the best imo, Gigabyte always need bios updates left right and centre.

They are a bit steep on here though so look around if i was you :)
 
Hamish, what would you suggest motherboard-wise for a total noob to BIOS?

ASUS Z87 boards (except ROG) are ugly as sin - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=24382572&postcount=9

Stick with the Gigabyte board as it comes with a free cooler which I have added to my cooler round up here.

If overclocking is want you want to do this is easy,

• Use EasyTune which has three presets (4.0, 4.2, 4.4Ghz)
• Use the CPU upgrade option in the BIOS (again a few presets)
• Use the quick boost function in the BIOS
 

The NZXT Source is 3p cheaper brand new. :p

YOUR BASKET
1 x NZXT Source 210 Elite Midi Tower Case - Black £39.95
Total : £51.05 (includes shipping : £9.25).

 
Thanks for the advice guys but i found a higher spec PC on the bay for a lot cheaper than i was expecting; hence no need for this thread anymore.

Again thanks for your time though :)
