Hey guys in the next 2-3 weeks im having a new pc built and this is what i've come up with so far Just wondering what people's thoughs on these specs are. Cost is between £600-£700 Case - COOLERMASTER K350 Black Case With 12CM Fan CPU - Intel Core i5 4 Core 3570K 3.4Ghz 6MB L3 CACHE (IvyBridge) - Overclocked to 4.7ghz per core Mobo - ASUS P8Z77-V LX With NEW Z77 Chipset RAM - 16GB DDR3 1600Mhz - PATRIOT VIPER V3 RED Performance/Gaming RAM HDD - 2TB (2000GB) SATA3 - 6Gp/s, 7200 RPM & 64MB Cache Optical Drive - SONY 24X LIGHTSCRIBE DVD+/-RW Dual Layer & Dual Format Graphics - nVIDIA GeForce GTX560 1GB OS - Windows 7 Premium
Looks like a decent build although i would have went for a different graphics card maybe the GTX 660 or 670 (but it is quite expensive).
As said a SSD drive for OS and game installs (makes a big difference) and a better GPU a gtx660 aint too expensive a runs ok (on paper)
I was looking at adding an SSD but the prices where im buying are very high May look to getting one to just add in myself Also as for Graphics Card I can change to the GTX660 for an extra £55
