Hello i really need help building a gaming PC but i really dont want to spend more than what is necessary. I would like to be able to play all games currently out at the maximum setting with possibly some texture packs and mods etc.

My budget is £500 although that is slightly flexible. I am really not looking for any kind of overkill but would like like the PC to run smoothly.

So to sum it up roughly £500 preferably a nvidia gfx and intel CPU and finding that balance between cost and performance.

Thank you for any responses in advance

The components i am currently looking at are the GTX 760 and the intel i54670K. Now im not sure if these are good enough and im really unsure on almost everything else.

Every game near max at 1080p buy this and overclock it:

Most games at medium-high to ultra with no overclocking:

Neither build includes a case, so you could count on spending another 50-100. I won't dare to pick a case, you just need to find one with a standard ATX form factor and it should work.

Also note that you can find some components cheaper, but those are what I consider good quality, a build that should last you a good 5+ years..

Thats what I would buy if I was on a budget and didn't want to sacrifice quality or performance.

The i54670K is a good choice, the GTX 760 isn't too good if your looking for a budget of 500. I'd go with GTX 660. Then your going to need case, power supply, ram, mobo, cpu-cooler, dvd/blu-ray. If you really want; reply to this or message me and ill send you a build by the end of the day that meets your specifications and you can tell me what you think and make adjustments.

Am pretty sure they do, also taking on what you said earlier it wouldn't be a bad choice to go for a slightly lower end CPU
