Hi All

Im looking to buy a new gaming PC to play the latest games such as fallout 4, overwatch and starcraft legacy of the void. I have specced up the following

This is probably about my max price. Is this OK? Could it be better for the same price?

Thanks for any help

Excellent thanks

I'm not missing anything obvious am I? Case is big enough etc

 

[RobRoy]

Thank you

 

[RobRoy]

I think the fan might be a bit big as well. Any recommendations?

Due to forgetting i need windows 10 i've had to make a few changes to the spec. Could someone have a quick once over of this to make sure everythings OK or perhaps suggest some changes to make it better?

Have i missed anything obvious? I need everything apart from keyboard / mouse and monitor

This is the max i can spend really (will get an SSD at a later date)

[RobRoy]

[RobRoy]

Thats for that viiofix Ordered same as you and hopefully i should be able to pick it up tomorrow

 

[RobRoy]

How's it running?

 

[RobRoy]

Cool just noticed the gfx card says 600w psu is this going to be an issue seeing as I've bought a 550w?

 

[RobRoy]

Just seen a review for the gfx card saying they had 600w and regretted it so went to 750w! Getting a bit worried now
