Approximate Purchase Date: End of this month.

Budget Range: £1000 after everything.

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Online Gaming. All types from MMO's to FPS.

Are you buying a monitor: I will be using a 50-60inch TV. Will buy a PC Monitor if looks better than a TV.



Parts to Upgrade: Fresh build from scratch.

Do you need to buy OS: No.

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Any UK site.

Location: City, UK, Nottinghamshire.

Parts Preferences: I prefer Intel but would be happy with AMD if works just the same.

Overclocking: Yes

SLI or Crossfire: No, One card that can cope with what i want.

Your Monitor Resolution: Not sure measurements of resolutions ect but just 1080 HD thingy. xD

Additional Comments: I'm looking for a new full PC that would max any game i want to play at 60fps with max settings. Im not looking for a system that would play games at 100 fps. 60fps is all i want.

Im fairly new to this and looking on the internet there is wayyy to much to read and choose from. So if anyone could build me a full build that plays all games at 60fps and the cheapest possible price would be great!

Thanks!

Yup. There's no need to break the bank on this one. There main difference between these two builds is the RAM speed, which is minimal, and you won't even notice it gaming.
