Hey guys,

Well after a lot of time contemplating parts, getting advice from the awesome people in this forum as well as a few other forums I finally decided to hit the 'Buy' button on OCUK this morning!

I have always been interested in computers/games but have mostly opted for the pre built systems as i never trusted myself with the expensive parts...However have been watching videos on how to build computers, how to fit certain parts etc and saw that you could get more for your money if you built the machine yourself.

So here it goes!

Spec is as follows:

YOUR BASKET
1 x Inno3D GeForce GTX 780Ti iChill DHS 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (GCI3-039) (C78TX-1SDN-L5HSX) £619.99
1 x Intel Core i7-4770K 3.50GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail £249.95

1 x Samsung 250GB SSD 840 EVO SATA 6Gb/s Basic - (MZ-7TE250BW) £119.98
1 x EVGA SuperNova G2 850W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply £107.99
1 x Corsair Carbide 540 High Airflow ATX Cube Case - Black (CC-9011030-WW) £98.95

Well Finished building it on Friday night with the help of a mate, I think it looks pretty decent for a first time build. Ordered a Silverstone magnetic dust filter to go under the hard drives.
