Hello,
I'm looking to buy a new computer to replace my ageing and very crap laptop.

The computer I've seen is the Palicomp Alpha Fury:
http://www.palicomp.co.uk/gaming-pcs/alpha-fury.html

INTEL Haswell Core i5 4670K (Quad)
Overclocked To 4.4Ghz Per Core
ASUS Z87-K
PATRIOT VIPER 8GB 1600Mhz
1TB SATA3, 6Gb/s
SAMSUNG 24XDVDRW
AMD Radeon HD7850 2GB
ASUS 24'' VS247H LED HDMI HD TFT Monitor

Is this an ok build? I would be using the computer for playing games such as CivV, EU4 and probably a few shooters as well as more standard video and internet uses.

I think I'll be upgrading the PSU (Corsair CX600M) and the heatsink (Arctic cooling). I'm tempted by the 128Gb SSD as well. Are there any other recommended changes and would the SSD be worth it?

I know that to build it myself it would probably be cheaper but it isn't something I'd really like to do at this time (maybe my next computer!).

Thanks in advance!

A combination of laziness, a lack of time and no manual dexterity turn me away from building my own computer.

Is the additional £90/100 worth it for the upgrade in graphics card? A mistake I've made in the past is trying to save money and basically screwing myself over. However, I'm reticent to spend money on minimal improvements (is it minimal?!)
