    Is this a good computer build for the money?

    Hello, I just wondered, is this a nice build for the money I will be paying for it?
    I'm not to good w/ the whole computer specs and other stuff like that, so I came here.

    BUILD

    it sums up to £1050.98

    I suppose the prices are fine, but of course these would cost cheaper in America if I'm not mistaken.

    Well yes obviously. British sterling is the most valuable currency.

    Yeah it looks alright, though I'd ditch the optical drive unless you're wanting to run blue-ray, but £80 for an optical drive is ridiculous.
    Also, if you can get an i7 3770k get it, it'll be future proof for the next 3 years at least.

    I'd rather go with a Eight core or six core from AMD tbh.

    It's alright but I wouldn't say it's worth £1000.

    Cool
    it's an okay PC, don't expect playing games such as BF3, Metro last light or crysis 3 at max settings.

    Maybe not at 60~ fps but it should be perfectly playable at the least.

    It won't run all games with maxed out graphics settings, but it should last you at least a couple years.

    I have this exact build, in fact this one's slightly better, and I can run BF3 maxed out with around 60 FPS

    you dont need to get a radeon to run a game always on ultra i have a Nvidia gtx 660 ti and i run ultra on all games so i suggest that so it also sums the pricw down lower but you get a real bang for your buck
