As it says above I would like to build a new PC but have no idea about what parts are good or anything really.

I have a £600 budget and as for parts I have a corsair GS600 power supply and a 9600gt graphics card (willing to upgrade if my games will run better). Also have a 42 inch hd tv as a monitor and a sound blaster x-fi external sound card and a 1tb hdd but no idea of its specs. Almost forgot I have windows 7 x64.

My main aim is to get skyrim running at max spec and I want to mod the crap out of it as well but also want something that is upgradable so when new games like elder scrolls online comes out I can run them in as high spec as posable.

Any help will be apriciated ty

These are top of the range parts ready to crush any game.

What I've changed:

Ive changed the case to a zalman z11 plus as it is black with a smpked side window and has great cooling.

Ive changed the cpu to the to a i5 4670k. This is great for cpu intensive games like skyrim and etc... This cpu is also overclockable.
(It would be pratically the same price for a non overclockable one also when this cpu gets old you can oc to bring it up there again)

I've changed the motherboard to a good strong one which comes with everything you need and more.

Been doing research and think I will go with this build thank you :)

Two things though what part could I upgrade if I use the money from the hdd as already have one? And what would be a good case as I don't really like the white one?
Sorry that's more personal preference

Just realised that this build doesn't have a cpu heatsink can anyone suggest a good one I could get please?
