A new PC build here and first time too. Finally getting into the PC gaming goodness! So a few questions I hope you can help me out with here

First see link of the build below

** Competitor link removed **

Though I have researched heavily to ensure everything goes together, I’m a little bit worried about the fitting (sizes) of the components in the case and PSU consumption/compatibility of parts. Can anyone lend me a little knowhow knowledge on these? Also I’m assuming the I’m going to need a cooler for cpu as well, Can you advise on a decent cooler? Under £30 preferably.

Secondly is a Disc reader/drive necessary to install things like drivers, windows etc? Or can I use a USB to install the OS and download the drivers?

Will check back for responses tommorow. Thanks.

Hi Skooter,

Welcome to the forum.

Linking to competitors is not allowed (that site contains links to competitors).

Noticed there is no SSD in the spec. A 250GB for the OS/programs/fave games would be a worthwhile addition.

You can use USB stick for OS download and install the latest version with most recent updates included, yes. Buy the DVD Windows version if cheaper, then just use the key provided.

Everything would fit. Here's an alternative with SSD included and the newer version of the Hyper 212 cooler:

My basket at Overclockers UK:

Total: £901.79
(includes shipping: £0.00)
