I saw this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VIBOX-AURA-21-AMD-FX-8350-HUGE-32GB-6670-2GB-DESKTOP-GAMING-PC-COMPUTER-/190797699900?pt=UK_Computing_DesktopPCs&hash=item2c6c6ddb3c
which seems perfect, with 32gb and fx-8350, for under £700!
BUT. The radeon 6670 seems really less appealing.
Could I buy the computer, and also buy an AMD graphics card separately and put it in the computer? I was looking at the GeForce GTX 650 Ti.
I'm no computer boffin, but I guess I could get instructions or something
thanks

No I wouldn't buy that system. 32GB of RAM is a gigantic waste of money.

The 650TI isn't really better than the 6670. If you want a good low end GPU go for the Radeon 7770.

This would be a better system on your budget:

cool, thanks for that. Only thing is, will I need any fans/coolers?
And if I bought that setup, is that all I need to get it up and running? I've got windows 7, a mouse and keyboard, a monitor and speakers. Would I need to buy anything extra?
thanks again ^^

haha yeah :) thanks g-unit.
Didn't realise I could get all this stuff at such a good price. Another problem is building. I've never seen parts separately. Only in a pre-built. I have no idea how to put together a computer.

There's tons of resources out there that will show you how to build. Alternately chances are good that you probably know an experienced system builder who can help you.

just to make sure, these can all ship/be in england? :) <- possibly a dumb question, but just making sure

Yes. The parts I linked to are all UK based stores. I always recommend buying locally because if you buy internationally a lot of countries will charge some very hefty customs fees and import taxes.

Not really. You can always add as many fans when you need them. Your build's air flow is determined by the positioning of the heat sink among other factors.

Yes - that will include everything you need to get started.
