Hi im looking to build my own gaming PC for the first time (or buy if price is right) I have a rough idea of what im looking for- around £1000 (preferably less) with a decent graphics card thats going to run all games for a little while...

At the moment i've come up with this
http://www.scan.co.uk/savedbasket/78e1d83d17274d09b7467c69a2c0093b
with a bit fenix mini ITX case or any midi tower.

I would appreciate any thoughts on this or recommendations as i wont be building until at least after christmas new years so have a llittle while yet to plan

Thank you:)
