Help With First PC Build

Hello everyone! This is my first post on here as i usually watch Linus' channel and have only recently found out about this forum. 

Currently I have an old laptop that has seen better days, Broken screen and i would finally like to upgrade to a desk top PC but i have seen Pre-Built ones are way to expensive for what you get - I would also like the experience of building my own PC, So hopefully you guys could help me with it! :)

 

 

I have a price range of £500-£600

 

I am looking for this to run GTA V on high at 60fps - Consistent. 

I want it to run heavily modded games, Next gen games on high/ultra graphics 1920x1080 - While constantly at 60fps.

I would like this to run 2 monitors without any trouble...

 

I would like a build which could be freely upgraded without trouble ect.

 

Currently I have;

  • Keyboard - Razor Black Widow Ultimate Chroma
  • Mouse - Razor DeathAdder
  • Monitor/TV - Samsung TV
  • Headset - Logitech G430

I don't need any peripherals.

You could drop the SSD and get a better GTX 970.

It does go above budget unfortunately, but it include the 960, a 120 GB SSD, and a semi modular PSU which is much better for cable handling.

 

Only goes up by 24 pounds.

The GTX 960 is a mid-range card.  There is a world of difference between the GTX 960 and 970.

The budget is 600 pounds, and I made a very nice computer with room for expansion and an ssd, and a semi modular PSU. If I were to make a bare bones PC to make space for a 970, I could, I just tried to make it nice and filled with variety. I'm not saying the 960 is the best, card, but a mid-ranged, and preforms well with GTA V with no MSAA turn on with high to ultra detail and is overall really nice, and cool budget card.

i5 and FX does good in this game I seen but i5 is more compatible with the majority of the games so its safer to stick with that. 

 

For GPU I would advice you to get a 970 for GTA cause AMD have not really been doing to good at this game... (could be fixed now!)

 

Edit:

Even with AMD not being on top in GTA V, a R9 290 still beats the GTX 960...

It is your money, you do what you want to.  Your build is 624 pounds, my build is 608.  I have a GTX 970 and an SSD.
