Hi i am new to pc gaming and want to build a gaming pc, i have in mind all my components that i searched on pcpartpicker, now, i found components that are in america and are cheap but i live in uk so what i want to ask is: will the part provider like amazon, newegg ect. Ship those components to uk? If yes how much it will take? And if there will be additional costs

Your shipping cost is going to be astronomical. Not to mention your duty fees

Do you know about how much?

No im nowhere close to europe. Enough to make buying from Us stores pointless though I imagine, since I have never heard of anyone in europe doing something like this.

When you ship from the US to the UK you have to pay the shipping cost AND import tax which is 20% or something. It works out the same or cheaper to just buy it from the UK or EU

Lil bit over budget but a kick-ass system that'll allow you to drop in a second-hand i5 / i7 in a few years when needed.. If your budget is a hard limit you can drop to a 960 or similar..

Also no HDD but as long as you keep to a handful of your currently played games and not too much media, you'll be fine.. If you want more storage you can drop to a 960 and 120Gb ssd and pick up a 1TB with the balance and probably come in at the £600 mark ish.
