Urgent Help with new build

TGROBBO

Need quick help and opinions. 

 

Not sure whether to save for the whole build i am going to do or buy everything apart from the GPU (i need to know cause my birthday is in 4 days). I know what parts I am going to get but have no idea if i should run a PC on inbuilt Intel HD 530 Graphics for a year or save to get the whole thing at once (next yr). Another option would be to get the CPU this black friday then wait for next year to get the rest or buy parts as soon as I have the money. (I will have £500 by black friday, which is when I intend to get any parts if possible).

 

THANKS FOR HELP! :)

But I suggest saving up so you can get an i5 + 380 or 390 c:
