Hello! I was wondering if anyone could help me build a PC for League of Legends and other games like battlefield on the highest setting with still a good fps.
I'am completely new to building PC's and I have no idea where to start or even how to. My budgest is £800 the rest is saved up for Gaming gear (mouse,headset etc.).
I would also like to be able to multi-task so I could stream over a game with still good FPS and smoothness.
If anyone had any tips for me or any suggestions to what parts I should look out for that would help alot.
Thank-you in advance

League of legends is not at all demanding but Battlefield 4 is very processor and gpu demanding. Are you willing to overclock? hmm.. I thought I would be able to accomplish this with £800 but I guess I would rather not over clock seeming how this would be my first build.
As long as the GFX looks good and smooth I guess that is okay.

This will give you incredible framerates in League of Legends and will play BF4 on ultra at 1080p. I've tried to limit the number of stores to three because otherwise shipping costs add up and it's really annoying buying things from like, five different places! I can reduce the cost further if you like by lowering the quality of the case, SSD, power supply and changing the motherboard to a micro-ATX if you like but this build is nicely balanced imo

Here is a more budget-orientated build that would perform roughly the same and allows for the option of overclocking in the future. You can swap these parts out for any in the previous build with the exception of the processor and motherboard, they cannot mix and match! I've picked that power supply again because there simply isn't anything close to its quality at that price, right now it's a fantastic deal and is cheaper than it's 650W equivalent. If the price of it goes up though, a 650W unit will be absolutely fine.
This build has a smaller SSD which would be fine for installing Windows and a small number of games. The case still has good airflow but is not built to quite the same quality (though is still respectable) and the processor has more cores (threads really) but those individual cores/threads don't work as fast as those in the i5. With this build you could replace the r9 280x for the better performing R9 290 which is a considerable upgrade. I thought I'd leave it as it is though to give you a clearer picture of the cost breakdowns.

I'am not to sure about the smaller SSD because I'm not sure how many games I will get but it looks good . Still looks complicated to me being a first time builder. Would these builds also allow me to record game play and maybe stream at the same time still with ultra setting and good fps ?

If you want to record gameplay I hear that the Nvidia Shadow play software is the best for that though I hear that now AMD have bought Raptr they have pretty good software too. Here is a build with an Nvidia GPU. The GPU is almost as good (sometimes better) as the R9 290 in most games though the R9 290 has a definite edge in Battlefield 4. A cheaper Nvidia card is the GTX 770 which has similar performance to the R9 280X I included in the previous builds.

Thanks for all of your help! I'am a little scared that I may brake or mess up the build if I do it myself do you think I could find a pre built computer with all the things you suggested ?
I did some searching myself and found https://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/system/weekly_sales_... this computer with a Asus motherboard and a Nvidia geforce video card. Do you think this would do aswell as the things you have listed ? + there is no way I can brake it as it is pre-built

I had a look at it. To make it the same as the one I built costs £1111.00 (not kidding) and the power supplies they offer are mainly poor. The Nvidia card it comes with is only a GTX 750 Ti which will most certainly not play Battlefield on ultra so I changed the card to the GTX 780 like the build I suggested...it had an impressive effect on the price!

How about this on DinoPC, they don't add too much extra on for building. It's still almost £180 more than the DIY option with a GTX 770 but if you're really nervous about DIY I don't want to pressure you!

Thanks for helping me out it really means alot to a first time build noob like me!
I really like the look of this build. It fits my price range and being prebuilt helps me out alot.
The only concern I have is how many games would it be able to hold ? And being pre-built would it be easy to upgrade parts myself ? or would I need to go out and buy a special tool kit. Would it also allow all the things I listed before (streaming,multitasking) without effecting the FPS or smoothness of the the program I ran?

Thanks for all of your help! I'am a little scared that I may brake or mess up the build if I do it myself do you think I could find a pre built computer with all the things you suggested ?
I did some searching myself and found https://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/system/weekly_sales_... this computer with a Asus motherboard and a Nvidia geforce video card. Do you think this would do aswell as the things you have listed ? + there is no way I can brake it as it is pre-built
Honestly not much can go wrong if you build it yourself. The only problem would be if you dropped a part from a notable height. You'll end up paying more for a prebuilt and you get lower quality parts compared to if you bought it yourself.
Also you don't really need to spend 800 pounds to get a good pc. What I suggest that meets your requirements:
CPU: FX 6300
Motherboard: Gigabyte 970A - UD3P
Ram: 8GB ( 2x4GB modules)
HDD: 1TB
PSU: Good quality PSU 500W and above
GPU: R9 280, R9 270x, or R9 270
Case: Mid tower ATX case
OS: Win 8.1

How about this on DinoPC, they don't add too much extra on for building. It's still almost £180 more than the DIY option with a GTX 770 but if you're really nervous about DIY I don't want to pressure you!http://www.dinopc.com/shop/pc/AMD-760G-Chipset-110p1317...

Is their really much difference between the £600 build to this £800 ?
If there isn't I think I should buy the £600 so I could save the rest for future upgrades and maybe more gaming input devices.

If I did build this how much would you est. it to cost ?
I do have a money saved but if this is better for less i may aswell invest.

The dinopc build will do all the things you ask. The 770 is much, much, much better than a 750ti and is a very respectable high end card. You will have plenty of storage space with the 256Gb SSD and the 1Tb HDD. Games don't play any better on an SSD but maps will take less time to load on BFI dislike the power supply though. I would personally go with RazerZ's build.

Well I dislike the PSU too but as I was looking at PRE BUILT systems I didn't have any choice!

If you're in the UK like me (I assume you are) there must be an independent high-street computer place that might build it for you for a fee. I expect though that they won't offer you a warranty on the parts and if they break them you'll still have to buy a new one/return to the place you bought it from if it arrived faulty (though I'd hope that someone working in a computer place would not manage to break something!!). Regardless whatever you do, don't let PC World anywhere near it!
The Dino PC build is very similar to the £600 DIY builds that others have suggested, you're basically paying £100 for them to build it and give you a warranty. I'll have a look around at some other PC building websites too for offers etc. Getting a mediocre power supply seems to be a common theme with this kind of build but the Corsair unit I suggested on the DinoPC build isn't too terrible really. I sense that you're really anxious about doing it yourself and so I'm not pushing you to DIY (unlike some others) as I'm sure you have already figured out that it's cheaper!

This build is practically the same as the one RazerZ recommended with a slightly better graphics card. again it's from DinoPC and you pay £130 for them to build it and give you a warranty. I customised this build https://www.dinopc.com/shop/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=13.... The reviews of that PSU are pretty favourable to be honest, it has Japanese caps on the primary where it matters and then a mix of OK polymers and electrolytics from Teapo et. al. on the secondary. Ripple could be better but it's not at the levels of destroying your components.

I really think we shouldn't be recommending that £33 Win 7 on Amazon as looking at the reviews it's clear they are OEM disks for PC's like Dell that won't work on a DIY build like this. For £69 there is a 100% legitimate copy at CCL computers

Good catch. I just went by pcpartpicker's selection and win 7 was the cheapest.
