This should go in future builds/planning

 

edit:

Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades:

  • Intel Core 2 Quad (Yorkfield) series

  • Core 2 Duo E8xxx (Wolfdale) series

  • Core 2 Duo E7xxx (Wolfdale) series

  • Intel Pentium E5xxx with Dual Core Technology (Wolfdale) series

  • Celeron Dual Core E1xx0 (Conroe) series

  • Celeron 4xx (Conroe) series

 

 

Just save up and build your own, this computer will need a lot of upgrading because socket 775 is dead.  So, save up and build a custom PC

There are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.

wantted to get better graphic and CPU but it doesn't seem worth doing with this PC from other reply's, looks like I have to build a custom 1 & I'm a gamer.

 

You'll have to get a new case,PSU,CPU and GPU.

poops, I thought so  :(.

 

 

is it possible to get good enough custom build gaming pc with £250 budget? if not then £500..., I'm not very good at looking for the spec comparing which is better or worse & if it helps I play Starcraft 2 & MMORPG's.

@Tist I think you will need an OS,I couldn't find any retail version of Windows which is pretty weird....This'll be an absolute epic machine for the price!

Plus you get BF4 with that graphics card which is a pretty sweet game right now and when they fix it it'll be even better.

@WoodenMarker Anything to add or change?

It depends on what the OP is doing. If he's not doing much heavy gaming and just playing games primarily like Starcraft 2, he could just go with an APU. 

There's also no point getting the 270. the 7870 is £130.

Yeah but just saying if he wants to mix it up and play a FPS with some problems,he has BF4 cause the card comes with BF4 and the difference is just 10Euros.

You need to quote a post or tag a member or else they won't get a notification you replied to them.

 

I would just get a new system at that point.

The system uses an APU so the graphics are integrated onto the cpu.

Going intel would cost more and require a graphics card for a decent gaming experience.
