Well this is what I have come up with for my budget of 730 which includes delivery and the payment to use paypal, I want this PC mainly for gaming, now I don't mean super HI-TECH out of this world gaming, just for all games, will run smoothly and is upgradeable - I worked of a mock build a person gave me on this but things such as the PSU were out of stock and I found out it wasn't powerful enough luckily, so I chose the 600w super flower one which I hope will do the job ? everything else seems good enough but I just want final confirmation that I'm spending money on a PC that will do what it's intended for ie smooth gaming eg shooters, simulators etc the final price comes to 729.97 and this I believe is the best I can do- all feedback would be greatly appreciated ASAP as I intend to order tonight ! I'm a computer illiterate btw or noob as one would call it nowadays ha

Everything looks good, maybe switch the psu to this? Very reliable and around the same price.

+1 to PSU, or even the 450W would do.

You could save a fiver on the windows if you bought the German version and borrowed/downloaded the English disc to use with your German license key.

Also better & cheaper motherboard.

thanks for the replies, that video card requires 500W, I was going to get the 450W but it's recommended to get a PSU that is atleast 100W more than what the Video card requires, what is the difference between the 600W and the 450W ?

sorry yes!! I was going to go for that psu earlier but it wasn't in stock :LLL thanks for showing me that haha I'll go build another one with your recommendations thanks!

They just say that because there's a lot of bad PSUs around. Go for the 450W or 550W amazon. The gamer edition is inferior.

If you still have any money left our of your budget - get a better screen. You will be sorely disappointed with a 19".

Get a 22" with 1920x1080, you won't regret it.

You could save 20 by building yourself, and another 15 by using the stock cooler for now? Just an idea....

This is €99
