Hi guys im after a gaming system around £850
what is the best/fastest i can get for the money.

would like an i7 but have noticed most gaming pc's are i5
is there a particular reason for it or just keeping cost down?
would like SSD as main
dont need OS as i have win 7 here

Not AMD fan

I know i could buy the parts and fit my self BUT to be honest i cant be asked
been there and done it.

Not fussed about OC because its not something i have tried and dont really understand.

thanx

An i5 is fine for gaming and with the saving over an i7 allows you to get a better GFX card that will far more beneficial.

Build it yourself for maximum bang per buck or othewise it will cost say £60 for OcUk to build it if an of the shelf PC isnt what you exactly want.

That is a 290X card, it requires two 8pin and one 6pin PCI-E connectors, hence the suitably beefed up PSU with the right number of connectors for this beast of a card.

4 free games with this card.
