New PC build.

Mimetic

Hi all new here.

I'm looking at putting together new PC soon & I'm looking for some suggestions for a gaming focused build.

 

Here are some ideas I had about a year ago for my next build but the list is not covering everything just mobo, cpu, ram & a new case I'm unsure how to finish this build with what is currently available & within a budget:

I usually order all my parts from scan.co.uk to get them all delivered in 1 package https://www.scan.co.uk/

My budget is at £900 maybe able to push that to £1k not 100% on that just yet though.

Also to add I'm thinking of 1 ssd for OS & a 2nd for gaming & a HDD for storage & music & films etc.

I will also need a monitor to go with this build but for now I'm just looking to decide on parts then a monitor to go with it when I save some more money for it.

 

My current build:

CPU: i5 3450 @ 3.10ghz

GPU: ASUS Strix gtx 970

RAM: 16GB Corsair vengence @1600

MOBO: MSI Z77A g45

HDD: Western Digital Caviar Green 1TB

SSD: Crucial BX100 250gb

PSU: Seagate 620watt M12 II Bronze Evo edition

 

I can play most games on my current build at around medium settings @60fps such as Battlefield 4, planetside 2, empyrion galatic survival & dayz.

 

I'm looking forward to replies & suggestions thanks.

I'm buying in the UK btw.

Pretty much yes maybe some windows office use from time to time but gaming is the priority for it.

Sorry for not being more clear.

16gb would be a minimum as I sometimes host local servers for 2 games for co-op& MP with some friends.

8gb would be too low.
