Hi,

So I think I've finally decided on an £400ish upgrade for my current PC which is used for gaming. I'll be doing some modest overclocking as well.

Was wondering if you guys had any suggestions. I'm looking to order the stuff next week by the latest.

Cheers

For some reason the edit I made didn't go through. It was meant to say I'll be getting the graphics card at a later date when I have the cash. So for now £400, £300 GPU will be later

I made some changes, the Asus Z87-A is pretty good board for the price, it overclocks good and it has SLI/Crossfire support. Also changed the RAM, you will not notice any difference between 1600MHz and 1866MHz
