Hey, is this 'X' car good? I'm not going to tell you what it's for or what my budget is, but I assume you're a magician and genuinely know the answer. Huh.

Sorry, I wrote the post in a rush. Hence the title saying quick. Its a gaming PC. It's cost is 1,300 pounds but I am ordering a gaming headset, sound system, gaming keyboard and mouse with it so the actual tower itself is around 800-900 pounds.

To put it short, it's not a good computer in general in terms of value : performance ratio, never mind when it comes to gaming. Intel CPU's are simply superior for the price, closed loop CPU cooling solutions are overpriced and underpowered, cheap-o case, unneeded fan controller, and a PSU that is presumably trash. For 900 pounds, you can do significantly better.

Do you think you could build me one via this site; [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] As I need to use this site's finance option.

Any PC you build on that website or any pc building website will always be overpriced, if you want the best performance-price ratio, build your own, it's easy.
and to use the sites finance options, you need to have a good credit rating, won't ask you about your credit rating, but just a heads up, otherwise the company offering it can reject you.
