I5 4460, gtx 960, z97 pro4 budget build

Sample_Text28 · Aug 20, 2016

This is my 1st build for basic gaming. Please say if parts are not compatible and suggest replacements of parts (especially case, mobo and monitor). Budget is £800 INCLUDING MONITOR, my preferred supplier is Amazon uk, and I'm not interested in overclocking. I'm open to all suggestions.

Thx a lot. I'm going to wait a few weeks to see if anyone else makes any more suggestions or agrees with this build, but this is great

Prices can change in a few week, especially GPU's considering the latest generation have just launched. You need to ask at the time of buying.

Is it possible to change the psu to maybe a bronze 500b

Also, any graphics card replacements that are slightly cheaper?

If you are waiting a few weeks to buy, the parts list will be completely different.

Yes you can get a cheaper video card if you need to.

No do not get a cheaper psu. The psu is the most important part of the entire build. The EVGA 500b is not very good.
