Hi everyone I'm currently looking at building a computer to play league of legends and wow but would like to try other games if possible.
I have created 2 on pcpartpicker one AMD a10 7700k + r7 250 and one Intel i5 4670 with integrated intel hd 4600.

My budget is around the £400 mark

Intel : http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/madamada/saved/4h3G
AMD : http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/madamada/saved/4h6E

I'm just asking for some opinions as to which would be the best route and which parts would be better, I've had a i7 3770K and loved the intel so I'm biased to intel but would go AMD if it's similar performance for the price.

Also have a case so not fussed about a case atm just components.

thanks in advance

i like intel too but if going with amd means you can get a graphics card too then i would choose amd.

Will play League of Legends smoothly with maxed settings @ 1080p.
Will play WoW smoothly with medium settings @1080p.

If your monitor screen is lower then you will have greater performance.

Would only buy Biostar if I was competing with someone on what PC dies first.

Have you actually seen some reviews about Biostar here on Tom's Hardware. If some brand about hardware is bad it would stop to exist. The same was said about Asrock, but people buy them and they are happy.
