Hi, I don't have a very good understanding of PC's but I'd like to get into PC gaming. I would like to know if these components put together be enough to run Battlefield 4. Any help would be appreciated because I am very unsure of what to do. I have left out windows software but I do acknowledge that I'm going to have to buy that too as well as a case. I have a disk drive, gpu, ram (2x4gb), 500gb hdd, and an 15 cpu. Do I need more things for a gaming pc or is that it? Here are the minimum requirements of battlefield 4: http://bf4central.com/battlefield-4-system-requirements... Thanks in advance.

have you got a motherboard? however i would say great choice in parts, i would recommend getting a cpu cooler for the i7 and also look into the http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2GB-Gigabyte-Radeon-R9-270X-W... as it has bf4 with it and also has support for mantle,

Some parts that i cant see is
-case?
- cpu cooler
- motherboard
- networking card(if you plan to run it with wireless internet)

If you don't mind, can you recommend a motherboard? I don't really know much about motherboards so I can't really see which one I should buy. I should've also mentioned that I have a budget of around £500 for the components so the motherboard should cost around £60 max. Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate it.

yeah no problem and great job in picking the parts so far very good budget build and i would recommend this mobo- http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/asrock-motherboard-h87p...

kinda went over price by 40 pence sorry about that


Haha. You actually made me go over by 69 pence because the cheaper site charges shipping where as amazon don't. I think I'll be able to stretch 69p, only just. I only need a case I think now. Is there anything else I need? . I'm gonna be offline till tommorow so I won't be able to reply back immediately. Again, thanks for your help. I would be lost without your help
