So far I've found:
AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz (£79.00)
WD 1TB Caviar Blue HDD (£43.00)
2 x 4GB 1600 MHz CL9 DDR3 Kingston HyperX Beast (£53.00)
Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 (£69.00)
Gigabyte GTX 660 OC 2GB GDDR5 (£135.00)
Corsair CX 600W 80 PLUS Bronze (£48.00)
Windows 8.1 (£70.00) really expensive in my opinion!
Aerocool GT Advance Mid Tower (£27.00) or any better case around that price

Total Price: £524.00 (£387 without GPU)

Could be changed if you think its better..
AMD FX-4350 4.2GHz (£88.00)
Asus Radeon R9 270 DirectCU II OC 2GB (£144.00)

Do you see any items that could be cheaper or which aren't necessary, im trying to make as cheap as possible? I will be using it for gaming mostly on battlefield 4, dayz standalone, watch dogs, gta v (eventually).. with high graphics???

All prices are to the nearest £1 and most items are from amazon with free delivery, didnt know amazon was so cheap compared to other shops!

The FX 6300 is a better processor

Check your RAM is rated for 1.5 volts or less

You can use a 500 watt psu

The R9 270 is a little stronger , but not much
