    Hi lads

    Said I would ask on behalf of a friend who wants a new gaming PC.


    1. What is your budget? €500 - €800

    2. What will be the main purpose of the computer? Gaming , (Diablo 3 , WOW , Payday 2 etc..)

    3. Do you need a copy of Windows? No

    4. Can you use any parts from an old computer? Possibly DVD drive maybe , dont think it has sata connection though

    5. Do you need a monitor? No

    6. Do you need any of these peripherals? No

    7. Are you willing to try overclocking? No

    8. How can you pay? Credit Card

    9. When are you purchasing? Whenever , no rush

    10. If you need help building it, where are you based? Meath , should be able to do it myself

    So I guess it sums up to :
    Motherboard
    CPU
    RAM
    Hard Drive
    Graphics Card
    Power Supply
    Case
    Possibly DVD drive

    Many Thanks

    This is a rig I done up for a guy on here.
    Same rules apply.



    CPU.Intel Core i5-4440 Box, LGA1150 price .150.08

    Mobo.asrock h87 pro4, 62.20

    Case.Corsair Carbide Series 300R, ATX, 63,73

    Ram.8GB-Kit Corsair Vengeance Low Profile,66.47

    PSU.Corsair CX Series Modular CX500M,500W, 52 33

    Ssd.Crucial M500 120GB SATA 6GB/s 6,4CM

    57,23

    HDD.WD Blue 1TB 6Gb's ready for dispatch 46.48

    Gpu.ASUS GTX770-DC2OC-2GD5 DirectCU II

    271,48

    Total 777 delivered. Disc drive and stuff 800...

    Now you can get that down by getting rid of the ssd.... Dropping the card to an Asus 760 will knock 130 off. Personally I'd keep as is.

    If you need it to be 500 will do up a separate budget. As will need to swap out all parts.
