Hello, I want to a build a pc that is only used for gaming, I want to use the 760 MSI Hawk edition card (£221)or the Leadtek 760 edition when it released (probably going to be around £230-40), can you build a pc around that which will play big titles such as crysis and far cry? I am from the UK so any links would be preferred to be UK sites, thanks you for your support ;3

P.S I dont mind having to go with the 760 MSI 2gb (£196) if that fits in the build more

If you need a DVD writer, and you absolutely need to cut the budget, then perhaps look at the Fx-6300.

One small update, make sure you get Corsair Vengeance Low profile (LP) ram, otherwise the Ram might not fit with that CPU cooler.

I thought I added the low profile ram originally, but seems I didn't.
 

Yeah, the low-profile RAM won't even really have any impact on your gaming.
