Can you please help me select the right stuff to build my gaming pc. I would like it to have good graphics for games like Call of Duty Black Ops, Fallout: New Vegas (with mods) and Flight Simulator X (with mods). I would like it to be pretty fast. I am restricted on my budget and would be aiming to spend nothing over £800 at the moment. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

that would be quick for the games u play and should last you for some time - if you want to really save money, get a cheaper case

WOW thanks mate, i wont need the OS, keyboard/mouse or monitor as i have already got these. Many thanks on the quick post!
 
no problem :) sli'd 460's are pretty much on par with a gtx 480 and an i5 is a great cpu which will perform as well as much higher end cpu such as an i7 in most games
 
i thought all boards had an nf200 chip to support sli

Does this board have the NF200 chip as I thought this helped with extra PCI-E lanes so you can run at dual 16x rather than dual 8x.
