Final Build

[LukeD1357]

Hello everyone, have built computers before and quite successfully, but just want some advice on if this would be a good computer build for what it is going to be used for. It will be used for medium to high end games, preferably on high-ultra settings at a playable fps (30-60fps), video editing/ rendering, 3D design and some other design software. This is the build I've thought up, this is only using Amazon at the moment I will search for better deals when i start purchasing, budget of around £700:

This comes to around £700, is there anything that is overkill, or not enough for what the rig will be used for? Any help is appreciated. Obviously purchasing from England so English websites are obviously prefered.
Thankyou for any help.

video editing/ rendering, 3D design you would be better of with i7 but considering your budget that's not really a option

Well this build is certantly not overkill, but its enough for you want to do, i suggest get a i5 3570k and a Hyper 212 EVO Cpu cooler

 

[LukeD1357]

Thankyou for the help, would you say a 3570k would be the best I could get in this budget?
