    1. What is your budget? [€1100, but can stretch a bit]

    2. What will be the main purpose of the computer? Gaming. Witcher 3, Civ 5, etc.

    3. Do you need a copy of Windows? Yes, but I know where to get cheap, legitimate keys

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

    5. Do you need a monitor? No

    6. Do you need any peripherals? No

    7. Are you willing to try overclocking? Yes, but not if it costs much more

    8. How can you pay? Visa/paypal

    9. When are you purchasing? As soon as possible.

    10. If you need help building it, where are you based? No help needed.



    I want to game at high to ultra settings.
    Should I just use amazon.co.uk, or, given my location and taking shipping+VAT costs into account, could I find better deals elsewhere?

    i5 4460 €185
    H97 board €80
    500w PSU €60
    8gb RAM €55
    1tb HDD €55
    GTX 970 €350
    BitFenix case €50
    250gb SSD €90
    Total €925

    No real additions, maybe get a 4690k if you wanted for €75 more with a Z97 board, larger Storage drives or treat yourself to a monitor

    Any questions ask away
