    How does that look? Don't really want to go over 550 on it, I know I could spend more for a better graphics card but after some research I reckon that one will do me fine. Would also rather go intel rather than AMD. Price shown also includes the geizhals discount, so any changes you would make to it?

    Looks good to me,pop in an ssd down the road and you be laughing:)

    You could probably reduce the price a bit but most of the parts you have selected are good quality so id leave it the way it is

    You have a copy of windows i presume?

    Don't have windows no, but saw someone mention on here that it can be got cheap enough through reddit. So I'll look into that

    You could change the i5 to an i3 or switch to Fx6300 to fit an SSD on budget - totally worth it, SSD makes a massive difference.
