Hey, I'm building a gaming desktop, for the first time, but I'm not sure whether the system I've configured to be built is suitable for what I'm looking it to be able to do. I'm hoping it will be able to play games like Battlefield 4, DayZ, etc. My budget is £1000, give or take about £50. I'm building it from this site: http://pcspecialist.co.uk/
If anyone has any suggestions, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Those two graphics cards are too expensive for my budget.
 


You have a Z77 mobo + "K" cpu + cooler. You could save money by getting a H77 mobo + non "K" cpu + use intel cooler. By doing this and spending more money on your GPU youl WILL game at higher settings for the same price.

You spent a lot on the keyboard, mouse, and mouse pad.... get some "basic junk" for these for now, even used bin stuff. They are only "nice-to-have" not required.....

Then put ALL the savings on a more powerful GPU......
