GPU- I don't know about gpu it will be on my budget I will post under this
RAM-8gb
MOBO
PSU- I don't need it I already have it 700wOCZ I guess it will be alright because
I didn't had any problems with psu just need to clean it up
Monitor-1920x1080

I want to upgrade is because of my processor is overheating I even put thermal paste and cleaned but still nothing while running some games for example
Far Cry3.Battlefield3 my fan spins fast and what I do is minimize game and it stops spinning fast.

I also would like some advice what parts do I need to buy so they can all fit together.

No power supply as requested. About the only thing to tinker with is the hard drive, could be much better if you want to spend a little more. Also only 100 pounds from a nice overclocking system.

Here is a great $600 USD build (which should translate to around 600 pounds). It has a hexa-core CPU, a great dedicated GPU, as well as 8GB of RAM and an overclockable platform. :)

But the UK prices are higher. If you actually look at the conversion rates, the numbers almost stay the same. a $900 USD build will probably end up costing somewhere around 850 pounds. Not all prices are the same everywhere...

You can't use microcenter prices, those are in-store pick up only, in the US for cripes sake.

If you're going to do that, exchange the Hyper 212 for 8GB of RAM. With that CPU, you will not need an aftermarket heatsink; however, it would be helpful to have 8GB of RAM.

Agreed, left it in from a previous build. I would toss another 50 at it and get a better case as well, or even drop down to the i5-4430 and cram an SSD in there, he already has a decent storage drive. A lot depends on the need for a new copy of Windows.

I agree. I think that it is best to have the SSD in the first place so that Windows can be installed on it in the first place, especially if it is OEM. OP can always upgrade the CPU later if necessary, as this is still a relatively relevant socket.
