Hi all getting a bit confused with all the options on the site. I'd like to build a best system as possible for around the £700 mark. I would use it mainly for gaming and occasionally I may record gameplays and possibly edit them. So it needs to just write video whilst playing and may edit on it too but the primary is powerful enough to handle latest titles at at least medium quality.

If you can suggest builds, appreciated!

Required/Desired:
Intel processor
Nvidia graphics
16gb RAM
Primary SSD
Secondary HDD
Windows 7 only
built for me
max budget approx £750 all inc
disk drive a bonus

Sorry guys, just the tower. And no I probably can't build it myself. OS probably would be required, but not windows 8. I'm not sure which is the best 7 version I would need?

Ask Ocuk for a quote to build that, should be around £60.

Shame you cant do it your self as that £60 could be spent on other items.

Thank you. Few things:

I can probably go to about 750 if that changes anything drastically?
I was customising some of the OC builds and I would like to try get an Intel processor and a nvidia graphics card combo?
Note about the HDD, I think I would definitely prefer the build to have a 120GB SSD primary, and a secondary HDD of which 1TB would be sufficient.
Are any of the OCUK pre-builds a good option?

Thoughts? :)

Thankyou, seems pretty decent. Could I save on building costs by using one of OCUK's pre-built ones?
