hello everyone i have been a member here quiet awhile now but i stopped pc gaming ages ago but i really want to get back into it. but the only problem is that i have no room to keep a full/mid tower case so it would have to be a small case im not looking for a really power full gaming rig but something that can handle BF3 cod on high settings. this is a ruff system i quickly put together.

thank you

i really wouldnt go for a llano if you plan on using a discrete graphics card. as a processor it is equivalent to an athlon X4, but with the fancy graphics bit put in.

something like this would be way better:

Total : £506.09 (includes shipping : £10.00).

the PSU should last you through several upgrades (it will happily power an overclocked i5 2500k and two of the cards you chose)
SSD is much bigger and faster
processor may only have two cores, but its still WAY faster than the llano. its onboard graphics arent as good but you wont be using them
sadly the motherboard cant overclock any processor or do SLI/crossfire, but itcan do SATA 6GB/S and USB3. the cheapest motherboard that does all that is £100
