I have decided to get into PC gaming, and want a solid computer around £350 or less.
I want to be able to run CS:GO in 60 fps with good graphics, for one example.
I am considering this, but the graphics could be improved and the SSD is not necessary - http://www.cclonline.com/product/169895/NoMfgCode/All-CCL-Desktops/CCL-Elite-Phoenix-Gaming-PC/CCL-EL-PHO/

It's a bit overbudget at 360 quids but it should do CS:GO 60FPS @Ultra (And probably X4MSAA and X16Antisotropic) without sweat

Thanks for clearing that up, the build here looks good but madmatt30's looks slightly better.

^ just a tiny bit cheaper & a slightly better GPU really.

I would try & budget for an aftermarket cooler for the 860k in all honesty though - it'll do the job but is incredibly noisy & will spoil an otherwise thoroughly decent little gamin rig.

For the sake of £15 or so its worth it IMO
Best buy at the minute
