In the end I bought from ebay I was so certain this was the better buy here a link http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/370892305955?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649.

This is my 2nd time buying a gaming pc back in 2008 spending £500 got me Intel q6600 2.4ghz Geforce 9600 4Gb ddr2 800mhz 700w psu <- was alway way too much power but is still going today so was a good buy ASUS P5O Turbo Mobo nice overclocking board sadly never OC 500gb hdd.

I wanted something to replace this so was hoping to spend £1k (£900) on my next build with a i5 4670k, 8gb ram 1600mhz+, around gtx770 card, Win 7 64b, 1tb hhd also wanted to try add ssd be buying that later time, am going to try OC for the 1st time :s I know I don't have a cooler yet be buying that later.

I went with ebay after all I priced up similar parts on pcpartpicker and all was good until I found VAT was stopping me every items had VAT price of my build went to near £1k only had £900, I also looked on Dinopc.com http://www.dinopc.com/shop/pc/gaming-pcs-computers.asp they had some nice builds but felt they went too cheap on gpu a bonus was they OC for me.

so in the end couldn't find any better builds then this on ebay for my budget costing £875.

What do you guys think? I'm guessing someone going to mention why 16gb! just cos its was in with a good price why pick a mini when you can have a dodge for the same price :p
