It's not a great build. You're still going to be able to game with it but not well. Some recent games require 8GB of RAM. The 7770 is old and out-dated. The FX series of CPU's are dying out. I'd recommend spending a little more to get a much better build.

Although I agree the FX line and the 7770 is older generation they are still better bets than APU's at that price i think.

I would agree with Sanctorum and advise you spend as little as fifty pounds more. This build would perform better and the GPU is newer. The only downside with buying into AM3+ is that new products might not be coming. But there are still upgrade routes from this build, you could get the Six-core processor or the various eight core ones. And when official support ends, everyone will jump ship and used parts should be cheap.

Thanks Terrabytez, and do you think that the pc that you built will be able to run games like Arma 2?
