System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, internet, movies, work.

Parts Not Required: Mouse, Keyboard, Speakers

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: N/A. I know Newegg is good but I'm from the UK so cannot buy.

Country: United Kingdom, England

Parts Preferences: I'm not too sure? Whatever you guys think!

Overclocking: Maybe

Additional Comments: Must be able to run games like League of Legends, Skyrim, Battlefield 3, COD4 on medium settings at the least.

PS: I'm a noob when it comes to computers so hence why I'm here. ^^. I tried ordering some parts a while back but apparently according to my room-mate the parts I was going to order wouldn't work together or they would slow my computer down or something like that so please help! :hello:
