What do you guys think of this build, the PC is going to be mainly used for gaming, however I will also be recording/editing/rendering with it. I don't plan on overclocking this build. This will be the first PC I have ever built, so I want to get it right first time.

 

Would this be able to something like BF4 on ultra?

 

My budget is £800, but I can go a little over if you think it's worth it.

Make sure you have a backup wireless device encase that one does not work. I bought one myself and it caused countless blue screens of death.

just go wit wired lan if you are going to be gaming and for that use case an AMD 8350 and a am3+ motherboard would make much more sense. that 15 with no overclocking at all will run out off puff very soon.

Is this a good spec? I would be using this for gaming, recording with fraps and editing/rendering videos. Just wondering if everything makes sense to buy. I will not be overclocking this build btw.

Don't make multiple threads for the same build. Keep it to one thread per build. I'm merging the threads.
