    Hi All,

    I'm looking for help in building a PC that is somewhat future proofed for the needs below. I have been considering going for an Intel i5 3570k for this reason. Any suggestion please, thanks.

    1. What is your budget?
    €500 +/-10%

    2. What will be the main purpose of the computer?
    Photo editing (Planning in the future as a hobby)
    3D Modelling (IESve & BIM using as a student)
    HTPC
    Internet

    3. Do you need a copy of Windows?
    Hopefully no. I’m planning to use activation code from my broken laptop.
    (However if this does not work I will see it as an extra on top of the €500)

    4. Can you use any parts from an old computer?
    No

    5. Do you need a monitor?
    No

    5b. If no, what resolution is your current monitor and do you plan to upgrade in the near future?
    1920 x 1080, No

    6. Do you need any of these peripherals?
    Wireless Card

    7. Are you willing to try overclocking?
    Yes

    8. How can you pay?
    Credit Card, Debit Card

    9. When are you purchasing?
    In 14 days

    10. If you need help building it, where are you based?
    North County Dublin
