Hi all. I'm just looking to get a spec check on a gaming PC / Uni work machine that I'm making. Budget is around £650

What I have come up with is:

Anyone have any improvements/suggestions?

can/will you overclock?

find out how good that MB is for overclocking then if so drop the cpu to a e5200 if the extra cache isnt needed.

I would change PSU, that one only has a small fan and could be noisy. Corsair 450w will do.

I picked the mobo after reading some reviews about how good it was for overclocking (hence why posting in this section). At the end of the day Even if I overclocked to 3.5GHZ I'd be happy.

I also picked the PSU because of it being rated as being so quiet in every review I've seen however I've just spotted a corsair modular psu which I'll probably grab
