Hey

You expect a lot for 600£ rig :-)

It won't be easy to meet those requirements with both intel and nvidia and a 120gb ssd, which alone is already around 80£. I woudn't touch anything below gtx 780 if you want nvidia. Cheapest ones cost 380£ now. With that, your requirements start to be unreal.
So either wait until you get around 1000£ for your gaming rig or go for amd.

not gonna happen.

GPU wise, you want 280X, although with that budget, more like 270X.

You will have to compromise some where along the build to play Battlefield 4 even at 1080p with your criteria . AMD would be a better choice for your budget and requirements.

True, I'd remove the ssd but how much over £600 would I be?

Or get a 280x bf4 edition, better choice than 760, even oc version.
Thats if you can spend another 50£ on gpu.
