Hey guys,
I was told you guys know your stuff when it comes to building PC's and I was just wondering if you guys can help me.
ATM I'm running onboard graphics with 2GB ram and only 300gb of HDD space, I've had this PC for 4 years and I think it's time for a damn upgrade
My monitors native is 1650x1080 and that is something to consider with my build, so here's the deal:
- I want to stream my games occassionally to friends and the like so a GPU that can do this comfortably (and not be just an overkill) would be a consideration.
- I just love music so maybe a decent soundcard wouldn't go amiss also.
- I play DoTA 2, League of Legends (I intend to transition that into Diablo 3 and CS: GO also) but there are other games I'd also love to casually play such as GTA5 and Bioshock infinite) so some future proofing and the ability to max these out (or somewhat maxed) would be ideal.
- I do want an SSD + a HDD combo so some pointers on reliable sold brands would be appreciated (128GB SSD as the prices of those are quite extraordinary).
- A suitable case appreciated, I am not too fussy on the aesthetics just something that can fit everything recommended will suffice.
- I am quite ignorant on the finer things (cables, fans, I was told of some cooling gel?) so information on that would be appreciated
My budget is: £750-800 but I wouldn't mind maybe increasing that 100-200 (but I would rather not)

Stuff not needed:
- Monitor
- Keyboard/Mouse/Speakers
- OS
Stuff needed:
- PSU/GPU/CPU
- Case
- HDD/SSD (128GB)
- Cables/Mounts?
- RAM
- Fans?
- Everything else basically
preferred outlet: Amazon UK (as I have a prime membership)
I will be looking into OC also
I don't plan on upgrading the PC further (dont need a large case that is future proof) plan on starting all over again in 2-3 years anyhow.
I will be purchasing the parts in 2 weeks
Thanks in advance guys
