What is your budget ?

I think you could get better components to be honest.

jaackla · 6 May 2014 at 18:35

well i can build that for £300, but i got a budget of 6-700

Josh · 6 May 2014 at 18:36

You can get all of that for £300?

Your CPU and cooler alone come in at just a shade under £300 so I don't see how you reckon you can build the full system for that?

dacads · 6 May 2014 at 18:39

Why not Intel?

pastymuncher · 6 May 2014 at 18:52

The graphics card alone is £420 so that along with the cpu and cooler is your £700 budget gone.

jaackla · 6 May 2014 at 18:59

so for 300 is it worth going for it?

William-Mathew · 6 May 2014 at 19:01

Where do you get all of it for £300?

Josh · 6 May 2014 at 19:02

Is it £300 second hand? If so I'd say that's a decent price for a good system depending on how it has been treated.

jaackla · 6 May 2014 at 19:03

Yeah i can get the parts 2nd hand, and i think its been treated pretty well can it handle games on ultra?

Josh · 6 May 2014 at 19:07

The 780 will handle games on ultra yes.

If you can buy that lot for £300 then go for it. As already stated the gpu is worth over £400 alone.

BriT · 6 May 2014 at 19:08

all that for 300 quid?!

Highly unlikely. Calling shenanigans on this.

jaackla · 6 May 2014 at 19:57

Whoever is selling that lot for £300 must be either mad/rich or both

Depends on the game and the res you are playing at. Mine boosts to 1150mhz on the core but at 1920x1200 can't play all games maxxed out. I have had to turn down AA, shadows, god rays and a couple of other things in AC Black Flag to make it playable. Everything else is set as high as it will go though.

Whoever is selling that for £300 is a idiot.
