We're aiming to build something that'll let us play at high-ish settings at 1680x1050, for under £400. This is what I've chosen so far: Intel Pentium G840 2.80Ghz Gigabyte GA-P61-USB3-B3 H61 Novatech Powerstation 400W Modular Samsung Spin Point F3 500Gb MSI GTX 550 Ti Novatech Prowler Midi Case Patriot Gamer 2 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 LG DVD/RW Total £344.89 I'm just looking for some opinions before I order this, we have £55 reserved for keyboard/mouse, but we'd probably be able to shuffle some parts around. Thanks
The build seems fairly thought-through. Did you already consider ATI video cards? They usually offer more bang for the buck (surely - case by case and range by range, but still definitely worth consideration)
