Hey all,

I know its a big ask but i need an entirely new system for around £600, £650 absolute tops.

It has to have moniter and all, basic gameing is its primary use doesnt have megga fps capability. Needs to have updateable capability, ill probably add to it later.

CHeers!
 
i think you will struggle to build a half decent gaming base unit for that price,thats with out a monitor as well. may need to rethink your budget mate. :)
 
As long as you don't need the OS then it can be done (if you do need an OS learn Linux ;)). This should give you a very capable gaming machine with some potential to upgrade but really you would need to upgrade the motherboard before considering much overclocking etc as it is fairly basic. :)

Yeh thats a very good spec. Will hold up very nicely in games. The 1950 pro's are superb!
 
NO, The CPU is retail so should come with a standard cooler/fan. From what I have read they are very good as well so dont need to spend any more money on changing it.
