First PC build!

[pxseidxn]

A pc that can handle gaming very well at high settings on world of warcraft, league of ledgends and most games.

£600+ budget, no peripherals required.

No preference on anything apart from it fitting in a Fractal Design R4.

Need a computer chair so feel free to recommend.

Need a headset but not immediately so please don't add to parts list just suggest.

Also relatively old keyboard and mouse, so suggestions please but don't add in the parts also.

I have a monitor but its old but I like it, but also feel free to recommend.

So no preference just a fast £600+ computer.

thanks, pxseidxn

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/MB99wP over the  £600 mark by £1.34

wait forgot to choose a psu lol

I'll post later what I'll recommend

[Dreigo42]

If you're not gaming over 1080p, I'd swap the 280X for a 270X and save quite a bit. Otherwise that's pretty close to what I'd pick.

[Firearm2112]

Never go for a "gaming headset" there often over priced and sound like crap. Get real headphones bro. AND NO BEATS *flips table*

*snip*

 

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/Mg4DQ7 I can't lower the price anymore but yeah. Like @Dreigo42 said, it also comes down on what you prefer. You can play 1080p at high settings with no worries at the 270x. And I don't know if the athlon will bottleneck the gpu so I don't know. If you're really on budget you can get this. http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/fXWZXL

Price doesn't really matter too much I'm more into a high spec system that can run every thing at the highest settings, I have a birthday 60 days after I get the money for it so I can bump it to maybe £1000 or £800.

[pxseidxn]

Wouldn't most of these Intel's bottleneck the gpu?

[Nico123473]

Wouldn't most of these Intel's bottleneck the gpu?

change it for an i5 then that won't or change the graphics card for a 750ti 

[pxseidxn]

what about an fx 8350?

[brob]

Not sure what is meant by £600+, so I went a bit over. If you need to get it close to £600 drop to an R9 270X and/or put it in a Corsair 200R case.

The 8320 is just the same as the 8350, only 0.5Ghz lower(You can overclock it to 4ghz at stock voltage), the T4 is better than the seidon(unless you'll consider to buy a h100i)Crucial SSDs are better(most of the people I've talked with recommends it), and the 280x Toxic is one of the fastest,coolest,quietest 280x around(don't forget that sexy backplate). If you're digging the blue theme, try finding a 280x vapor-x tri-x

 

here's some glam footage from Kitguru.net

 

Highly recommend a i5-4690k with a z97 if you'll just use the rig purely for gaming.

[pxseidxn]

I'd like to pay a tad bit more and gain the 11% more performance, What about everything you suggested, but with a 4770k?

 

Thanks. 

[pxseidxn]

or even a 4790k?
