Why would you get a 7770!? I l almost got a 7950.

I have created a build that will not allow you to OC the processor, but a 2300 will be able to keep up with any graphics card you throw at it right now. I also put in a different cooler, you don't really need it. but it will be quieter than the stock one.

Bare in mind that a lot of these prices exclude VAT so unless you've got a way of not paying VAT or claiming it back, the final price of your build will be 20% higher.
