Hey, just to let you know this is my first PC build. I currently only have a £500 budget. I'll most likely purchase the parts on Friday the 23rd of May (next friday) when I've been recommended the best build and thoroughly looked in to every part. In the next 6 months I plan on massively upgrading (hopefully another £1000 or so).

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming (nothing too fancy, things like Minecraft), graphic design (Photoshop, Cinema 4D - a fair amount of rendering), music production (programs like Fruity Loops), and internet surfing.

Parts Required: All the usual parts. I need Windows 7, a monitor (or else I'll be forced to use my crappy 42" TV), a mouse and a keyboard.

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: What site would you recommend for someone in the UK?

Parts Preferences: This is my first build so I'd like a case with a fair amount of room.

Overclocking: Would you recommend it?

Thank you, all help is MASSIVELY appreciated!

Joe.

This will do fine, the parts are from [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] on the today deals page. Torrent the operating system or use linux.
