Hi,
Would someone be able to give me a PC build that would run all new games (the Witcher 3, GTA V etc.) on max or close to max settings?
Looking to spend around £500 - £600 but could maybe spend more if it is needed!
Thanks!

Solution
This build will be about 700 pounds, sadly. You do have some other options, such as replacing the 290 with a 960, but then you would see less FPS. I definitely would recommend this build. You can also try buying used. If you have another hard drive, you can save another 50 pounds or so. If you need to save money, you could also try buying an i5 4460 instead of the 4690k , but then you wouldnt be able to overclock. https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/profoundnoah/saved/#view=w87qqs

Admirable
for that budget, you cant really play games on max settings, but on medium-ultra (on some games), you will be just fine wtih this:

+1; This is a solid 600 quid build for the price that will handle most games that you throw at it!
