I am looking into building a PC, this is what I have so far:
Case: Corsair Carbide 500R Micro ATX Midi Tower White
PSU: OCZ OCZ600MXSP-UK ModXStream Pro 600W ATX Power Supply
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965
Optical Drive: Samsung SH-222AB
Motherboard: ASRock 970 Extreme 3
RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (2 x 4GB)
Graphics Card: PNY GeForce GTS 450

Bear in mind that I have also chosen this monitor: ViewSonic VX2336S-LED 23 inch, plus the Microsoft Sidewinder X4 keyboard and Logitech G400 mouse. I would prefer the setup to remain around the £700 mark as that is my budget but I am open to recommendations on changes that could make it better. Thanks in advance everyone!







 
That's a very week graphics card. I would suggest something more modern.

I would also recommend a better power supply.

You should fill out the new build form in the new build section of the forum if you want build advice.

Okay, thanks I'll look into that. Do you think the build will be substantial for playing today's games at low/ medium settings?
