first time building a pc.
Its a budged build, would like to hear peoples opinions on this e.g. will it run smoothly? parts compatible? worth for the money am putting into it?
maybe there could be a better CPU for the budget?
my budget just not to spill over £420
in us i guess $600.
Pretty much any input would be appreciated, thank you.
 
240GB ssd & a better psu here, & no , on that budget the 860k is exactly where you should be looking.
