Hey guys,
I'm planning on building a gaming pc that can run CSGO and lol at 120+fps with high settings. Im from England and new to this, so please help me make a perfect PC :D thank you.

Approximate Purchase Date: JUNE 2016 +

Budget Range: £300-800 after shipping

System Usage from Most to Least Important:Gaming, just generally surfing the web, films,

Are you buying a monitor: Wouldn't mind a recommended one :)

Parts to Upgrade: Probably wont upgrade too much in the future.

Do you need to buy OS: Yes (don't know which windows to get, current:7 ULTIMATE)

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: amazon (don't know many others)

Location: London, England

Parts Preferences: None, just make me a nice pc.

Overclocking: no, i don't know how to and don't plan to.

SLI or Crossfire: No idea, what do you recommend?

Your Monitor Resolution: I would like to get 1600 x 900

Additional Comments:Kinda like the colour pink. Mabye some nice LED's inside the case if it has a window?

And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: I'm currently using the lenevo H420. I do not want to wait long periods of time when loading into games, booting my pc or loading web pages. Also i'm quite into gaming such as CSGO and LOL. I would like to get a better pc so i can run CSGO at 120+fps (current ~30)


Edit: Sorry i forgot, but can you please include windows in the price plz :)

Edit: Additional Info

CS and LoL are very light games. If the PC is just for playing those, I'd spend less on the system itself and more on peripherals:

That would be more than powerful enough to play both at 140FPS+ and take advantage of that 144hz monitor for ultra smoothness, gives you surround sound as well.

However if you think you will play more demanding games, you could spend less on the monitor/speakers and get a better system.
