My completed £700 budget build

[GingaMilla]

Here is the link to the build I have made after weeks of research and consideration on parts by reading reviews and watching how they work, this is what I have come up with.

You don't need that cooler, since the cpu can't overclock. But it is more silent, so i would approve this built.

[Kinda Bottlenecked]

Yea the stock intel cooler would do just fine~

[GingaMilla]

That's why I chosen the cooler. I want something that is not too noisy.

Personally, i think you should have gotten a K series CPU since you cant overclock on a Non-K series i5,
Unless you simply like the look of the 212 Evo or want it to be more quiet.

But it still looks Great, You will have a pretty stable FPS on that rig.

I'd change the powersupply to this one: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/be-quiet-power-supply-bn181

 

It's more quiet and semi modular.

There isn't an over-clocked version? I can get the 4670k for £20+ more then knock down the SSD to a 128GB. I don't know how to over-clock anyway so this might not even be an option. But I want the cooler so it runs quieter. Those intel fans I have been told by a friend of mine are not good.

Do Gingamilla Gain anything from your post?

And you didnt even say Why that build is better than his and what differences it would make.

What exactly does He need to know that hasn't already been mentioned ? 

 

He already said about dropping the SSD to 128GB (Which I did)

 

He mentioned that He could get an i5 4670K for £20 more (I included one in my spec)

 

The only major change is the graphics card which is just an alternative to the GTX 760.

 

I really don't see your problem  :rolleyes:

It is that his build is already built,

There is no reason to change anything, it would only become more expensive without gaining anything.

My problem is that i dont like passing unuseful information, It is called spam or crapmail in many areas.

And im sick so i generally get annoyed more easily, dont let it cut too deep.

I was under the impression that He hadn't built anything yet (Looking at post 7), If He has then any advice is just an afterthought.

My estimated wattage use with this build is 368w so would a 500w PSU be good enough or shall I upgrade to a 600w?
