    1. What is your budget?
    [€500 - 700]
    2. What will be the main purpose of the computer?
    [Gaming/General use] Games such as DayZ, which I want to run well and maybe some first person shooters / others down the line.
    3. Do you need a copy of Windows?
    [Yes] I've used windows 7 for a while now and am comfortable with it. Would use windows 8 if it's a case of all the components leaning towards that in the future.
    4. Can you use any parts from an old computer?
    [No]
    5. Do you need a monitor?
    [Yes] Monitor and accessories (Keyboard etc) will be bought outside of the 500 - 700e budget.
    5a. If yes, what size do you need.
    [20' or 20'+ 1080p]
    6. Do you need any of these peripherals?
    [Wireless Card/Card Reader/CD-DVD drive]
    7. Are you willing to try overclocking?
    [No]
    8. How can you pay?
    [Any of above.]
    9. When are you purchasing?
    [2-3 weeks.]
    10. If you need help building it, where are you based?
    [Should be able to manage.]

    Notes:
    I'm very new to the whole idea of building a PC as a concept but I'm more than willing to give it a try as I believe I can manage it. I've done good research and read the links provided here in the help section. I've done some shopping around in my local shops and the only PC they stock that would suit gaming is for 700e and has these specs. It's very much what I can build myself with my budget or lower (preferably lower) vs this pre-build model which comes without a monitor / accessories.
