Hi guys, I am planning on building my first pc within the next month.
The only parts i would like to include are an 8-core CPU and 16gb of RAM
My main use for the PC will be rendering programs like Solid works and Rhino along with Photoshop etc.
I will also like the pc to run games on medium to high settings at a smooth frame rate
I have an overall budget of around £800-£900 but that will have to include all the parts to the pc including windows 8 and a 24" hd monitor.
I'd preferably like to use amazon.co.uk
Thank you in advice to any responses :)

Hi,
Here is something for your budget.
-I assumed that you would need 2 TB HDD for your works and was able to ad SSD for overall boost on the OS and some applications
-Added the R9 270X (i own one), the gaming experience is pretty good even on demanding games like BF4 (80+ FPS at 1080p on high settings)
-Sorry for not using Amazon only, but the overall price would be much higher if i were to used Amazon only.
