Hi guys, I'm currently wanting to spend around 500£ on a PC, and have been to Maplin to ask their advice but thought I'd come here to have a second opinion.

I'm going to be using the system to game and digital artwork and 3D modeling.

I would prefer intel over AMD. Could someone help with the build?

Maplin suggested;

CPU: Intel Core i5-6400 quad-core 2.7GHz
Motherboard: ASUS Z170-P Intel Socket LGA 1151 ATX
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 4GB (1 x 4GB) DDR4, 2400MHz
Storage: Western Digital 3.5" Sata 1TB
Video Card: ASUS® NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX™ 950 STRIX 2GB GDDR5
Case: Corsair Spec-03
Power Supply: Corsair CX 550M

Total: £640

Thanks in advance :)
 
this is a way better build, in every aspect.
