£900 Build Including Monitor!

[Star|Track]

Hello Again,

Sorry for posting again but this time this is for me not for my friend. The build is for gaming and i have a budget of £900 which has to include a new monitor since i broke mine in a little bit of rage. Few things i would like it to have, atleast 1TB of storage, SSD isn't very important at the moment seeing as my birthday is not far after christmas! Other than that really nothing else i just need to get the best stuff any help will be appreciated!

Andy

You're paying extra money for nothing going with a AMD GPU if you don't mine. A 760 benchmarks 60 FPS in Crysis 3 on Ultra.

Funny how Crysis 3 is the only game that a GTX 760 will come close to matching a 280X's performance. Just about every single other game has the 280X's smash the GTX 760. Not to mention that even 270X will beat a GTX 760 in a lot of games despite being 50 pounds less.

Not that they suck, it's just that AMD we're the last ones to release so they can adjust price points for better competition.
