Hi guys,

Just a quick one! I have recently been given a nice lump sum of money for Christmas and I have decided to purchase a gaming computer/rig!

I have a budget of £900 and some of the specs I want are like the GTX 970 and the AMD 8350 CPU! They are kinda a must!

The build I want is to be based around gaming! I want a computer that will shred games with no problem!


The Build I have in mind at the moment!

any build suggestions would be great! and sorry if this is kinda horrible to read to some people! I haven't got hardly any experience in build and stuff I just know they are really good CPU and GPU and will easily shred games no problem due to a mate having them and having no problems!

dont know why you must have the 8350, but this would be better. plenty of room to choose the peripherals you need.

Why the choice of an 8350?

You could swap out the 380x for a 380 and pick up a SSD.

If you can spend £900 and you want to OC, get the 6600k and spend a little more on a cooler. As for the mouse pad thing, grab a Corsair MM200 Extended. f you're not interested in overclocking, you could maybe get a nicer kb+mouse within budget.
