So I'm planning on selling my current pc and using what money I have to make it a bit better than it was.
I would like to use the NZXT H440 case, things I do are basic after effects, Photoshop and c4d work (not looking for super fast render times) and I would like to play GTA V on fairly good settings when it's released (if possible)


Secondly how much would you pay for this:

450W PSU
Galaxy 3 gaming case
4GB Ballistix Tracer ram
AMD FX63000
MSI R7 265
(Not too sure on the motherboard)
500GB HDD
80GB HDD

THANKS

Are you wanting the 400 to be total or add on what you might get out of that onto it? Because building a good one for 400 GBP is very difficult.... Especially when trying to fit a quad-core in there for your editing..

Firstly, throwing a H440 into a £400 rig is ridiculous. You don't put a £90 case in a £400 rig. As for that rig, I wouldn't personally pay anything for it since the case is bad, there is no mention of the PSU make and model, the CPU is on a dead socket and it's an entry level rig. eBay sellers get ridiculous amounts for shit rigs though so you could probably find someone who would pay £400 or so for it.

Stop. stop, stop, stop, just stop. You keep telling users that their budgets aren't large enough, stop. People have budgets for a reason, not so you can say "hm, not enough, lemme give you a rig for twice the price". Not only that, but for £600, that's not even a very good rig. Single channel RAM? That Z97 board is a waste of money. That PSU is shit. An R9 280 is not a £120 card. It's £140 at least, and you can get an R9 285 for £7 less, which is a slightly better card.
