I have been reading the forums, and tried (probably wrongly
) to have a stab at a build that's fits the following criteria:
1. Budget £750 max ( I have monitor, DVD drive, keyboard, mouse, Hard drive for storage.)
2. Can be upgraded in a few years (Better CPU, more RAM, maybe Xfire)
3 Primary function: Gaming PC aiming for 60 fps at high, (ultra would be lovely, but criteria 1 and 2 are important)
I thought I would have a go myself rather than posting a "spec me" plea, I have no attachment to the items I picked, and no feelings to be hurt, so please be as honest as possible.
This would be my first build, although I have changed RAM, GPU, and PSU before.
