Hi I am currently planning to build a new pc myself however I am not very good and don't have much knowledge on which parts are best or which parts are compatible with each other. I would like a pc that has the capability to be upgraded in the future with minimal effort such as not having to buy a new case because I bought a small case and now better gpu don't fit etc.

Anyway, within the £900 I would also like to add that I will need a monitor, keyboard and mouse. They do not have to be gaming keyboard and mouse ( can be standard ).

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I can make it less than 900 pounds but the only issue is that you'd lose the ability to be able to SLI in the future as I'll chose a H97 Mobo by then

Like this one ( instead of the motherboard in the build ) :

Motherboard: ASRock H97 PRO4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard (£70.76 @ Scan.co.uk)

SLI : Nvidia's technology for Multi-gpu ( graphics cards ) setups.

Do you need an OS in your build?
