Hi! I’ve finally committed to building my own gaming rig, but really have no idea what I’m doing. I’d really appreciate it if people would be willing to make some suggestions on the proposed build/point me in the right direction.
Approximate Purchase Date: Like two months from the original post
Budget Range: £650 before rebates, not including monitor and keyboard.
System Usage (from most to least important): Low to Mid Gaming, Heavy Multimedia, MS Office.
Parts Not Required: Mouse, OS.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: amazon.co.uk
Country: U.K
Parts Preferences: Intel CPU
Overclocking: Future overclocking as I learn more.
SLI or Crossfire: Not in initial build, but as a possible future upgrade.
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: I am building on a tight budget but aiming for it to be future proof, so some of the parts I will probably end up changing when I get more money, especially with the one I am thinking of getting. Case with good cable management, clean installation, and cooling is important, as are good looks, but nothing that resembles a space ship or rave light show.
