Hi All

Will try this approach

Could anyone please spec me a rig which will be used mainly for gaming ?

Want to try and build myself but have no idea about overclocking so maybe I should get the overclocked bundle.

-Keyboard/Monitor required
-Antec 1200 case seems to attract me.

Hope someone can give me some ideas.

If I'm missing any extra details above let me know.

Thank you

I can recommend the pre-built systems for peace of mind if you are not used to building your own pc. Have a browse through some of those, add a keyboard, and away you go.

I have had my E6600 system in Antec 900 case for over 3 years.
 
I'm tempted with prebuilt ones but I feel confident enough to have a go at building one, after watching numerous clips and reading up on it, it doesnt look as bad as I thought.
 
What modular psu would you suggest for the above ? I only just noticed it wasnt modular.

Corsair HX 650W ATX Modular SLI Compliant Power Supply- that one ?
