New Build

[Farright]

Hello, my son has just become interested in gaming on pc and he is looking to build a pc in the price range of £400-£500.

He doesn't need a mouse, keyboard, OS or monitor and is looking to play games such as battlefield 3 and Arma 2, Can anyone suggest components please.

Thanks

You might want to look at something like this with a GTX650 graphics card.

I'm hoping the motherboard comes with the latest BIOS to run the cpu:
