£800 PC BUILD

 

As you can probably tell by the name of this thread, I am looking to build the best "£800 Gaming PC".

The parts that I will buy must be purchased in GBP (Great British Pounds) and must be £800 or less.

This is going to be my daily driver. As well as some 1080p gaming, I will also be doing text editing, video editing and general web browsing. I have decided that I will buy one monitor with this build and then save up for either one more monitor or two new ones. This monitor will need to look professional, be at least 1920x1080, preferably IPS, a reasonably good refresh rate and a good response time (7ms at max) For the peripherals the only thing that I require is a good mechanical keyboard that is manufactured by a decent company (the corsair k30 looks O.K) I would also like to say that I am quite in love with the EVGA Geforce GTX 960 SSC and I would love that to be my graphics card if possible. I know that this is a lot to ask but any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks In Advance,

Alfie Fogg

That's what you get when you save up for your PC for a very long time

Why do you need a new one then? This one is completely fine.

I'd suggest you to get a new motherboard, why did you get a i5 4960k on an H97 board?

Took the idea from @imPixelTV and edited a bit, I actually would suggest spending 30 pounds more and just getting a cheapo keyboard
