Thanks for the help dude, is there anyway you could save that build and maybe send the link so I can start buying parts? Also would that be able to handle good games (not a great game) such as minecraft with say feed the beast mods in with hardly no lag?
Nope, you'll need to go to [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] and use the search bar to search the components I suggested and add them to your own basket. The way scan works, I can't send you a link to a specific basket, it's a bit of a hassle but it's easy enough for you to search the components yourself. An R9 290 and i5 is way more power than you'll need for MC. The 290 is easily going to handle any game at Ultra on a 60Hz 1080p panel. If you can spend an extra £45 though, you should get the GTX 970. I'd suggest even waiting a little so you can afford the GTX 970. Although, the 290 will still be fine.

The cheapest GTX 970 you're going to get with a decent cooler.

If you want a nicer looking 970 with a better cooler, you have two options;

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
Both cost a little more than the Zotac 970.

Add an SSD when you have some more money. You can add another 8GB RAM if you wish in the future to help with editing/rendering, although an i7 would be more beneficial.

Hard drives are hard drives. As long as you don't get some unknown brand crap, you're going to be fine.
