Followed the 1-5 on here

So...

Lets get the basics

1. Location, budget and preferred area of purchase

Maybe around £700-£900, wouldn't want to go to the thousands, location is obvious

would like it to be amazon.co.uk

 

2. Needs!

Heavy web browsing (30-40 tabs) on Fire Fox

Rendering 30Min videos every now and then

F@H will be used a lot maybe on for 3+days straight and then stop although I won't be using my GPU for this though

Games wanting to play:

CS GO

TF2

GMOD

All maxed settings (4x/2x depending MSAA although on TF2 I might max it out, it can be come really bad)

 

3. Displays!

Currently one 1920x1080 27" display may upgrade to one 1440p or adding another 1080p screen 27"

No recommendations for monitors please!

 

4. Extras?

Windows would  be GREAT! would prefer to jump straight to win10 instead of going cheap from 7-10 but if needed to save money that's okay

Also a must is the  Corsair K95 MX Blues or Reds

 

5.  Why are you doing this? Is your PC not good enough currently?

My iGPU isn't as powerful as it used to be (maxed 60fps on TF2 and CS GO on high) but now it isn't as good as it used to be

also half my stuff is stock :P

 

 

Must have:

780T Corsair graphite (I love the look so fucking much!) or 760T if money is needed :P

MSI R9 XXXX

Black and red themed motherboard, would like it to be MSI needs on mobo: 4 Ram slots at least, full ATX, maybe 4 SATA ports? (I don't know much about SATA ports) and a lot of fan headers

 

Re-Using

i5-4440

2x4GB Hyper X Fury RAM

2TB Seagate barracuda

Optical Drive

 

Not wanted:

SSD even though how good they are, I prefer HDDs, end of story

Won't get a SSD, deal with it, even if you moan at me I won't budge ;)

Headphones, mice speakers soundcards, I'm sorted on those

 

Keep in Mind:

Will not be using Ethernet as much as I like it, I've got to use wireless so make sure the motherboard has receivers or such please!

cooling is ehhh, I'm not really bothered (I like both as much as each other, air cooling and liquid)

May do some minor overclocking on the R9 not much, maybe what ever I can reach that is stable

 

Thanks!

 

If any more information is needed do not hesitate to ask!

Go Ahead! :D

If you ask about SSD's, I'll save you time and give you an answer before you even ask:

Quote

Won't get a SSD, deal with it, even if you moan at me I won't budge ;)

Thanks again!

Well, now you're reading this, I might as well inspire you with a deep quote

If you fall, I'll be there

so inspiring, so deep, the feels ;-;  THE FEELS ;-;

2)I like your picture

3) Or you have an epic ass rig (40 titan x's 9 6700k's clocked at 29GHz that is what I call a epic ass rig, but no one has that soo...)
