My first attempt at a gaming PC build, see spec...

[LHM]

So I have decided to take build my own gaming PC. I want a very decent system for the best possible price. Take a look at my build spec and let me know what they think, or possibly advise if I can get a similar performance for less or even change any bits? Thanks.

Pretty decent you could save money on a case a 60 pound case will be up to the job and you need a cpu cooler here is the one i would get. Also since this is a gaming pc a seagate 2tb would be better same price mish lol double the storage.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Seagate 2TB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache HDD - OEM (ST2000DM001)= £54.95
• 1 x be quiet! Shadow Rock 2 CPU Cooler= £34.99

Total: £99.84
(includes shipping: £9.90)

cheers for the comment mate. Would I need a CPU cooler though? As it stands for now I do not plan to overclock even though I have spec'd an CPU that can be overclocked. Wouldn't the stock cpu cooler that comes with the i7 4790k suffice if I don't plan to overclock?
