i have been researching a lot lately about pc components and i want to build a decent gaming pc mainly dedicated for "Rome total War 2"

These are the recommended requirements:
OS: Windows 7 / Windows 8
Processor:2nd Generation Intel Core i5 processor (or greater)
Memory: 4GB RAM
Graphics:1024 MB DirectX 11 compatible graphics card.
DirectX®:11
Hard Drive:35 GB HD space
Screen Resolution: 1920x1080


i roughly put together my components but their little costly for my liking:
intel core i5 4670k quad core
asus motherboard
8g ram
ge force gtx 660 or 760
600w psu
mid tower case
wd 1tb 7200 rpm hard drive

all together this would cost me around £650 without Os system

i have looked into amd fx6300 but i dont know which ones better

Total War is mainly CPU intensive, but that cpu is more then enough. The 660 and 760 are sort of overpriced, and after the BTC drop, the new AMD cards have been lowered to their original price. I would recomend a R285 for you, that will last a long time. If you want nvidia, I would go with 760 4gb edition, or wait till the lower end 900 series comes out.

also for OS don't pay 100$ for windows. Either wait for windows 10, (early 2015) or go to http://www.reddit.com/r/softwareswap/ and search windows.
Update: reddit has just banned sale of windows on their site, so it only works for other software
