Not amazing for gaming, but pretty powerful. Still I recommend having one custom built.

CPU AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition 78.00GBP
MOBO MSI 970A-G46 ATX AM3+ 970 65.99GBP
DVD LiteOn IHAS124-19B 24x Internal DVDRW 13.51GBP
GPU Sapphire 11179-09-20G HD 6870 1GB GDDR5 123.00GBP
PSU Corsair CMPSU-600CXV2UK 600W 52.67GBP
RAM G.SKILL Sniper 8GB 44.28GBP
CASE Antec Three Hundred Illusion 47.48GBP
HDD Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB 6Gb/s 56.30GBP
MONITOR Acer ET.WV3HE.021 Full HD Monitor DVI Black 83.06GBP
OS Windows 7 Home Premium OEM 77.07GBP
Total 627.85GBP
(Will probably change monitor)

So I've ended up at this..
It's way over my target budget of 450GBP, but I think I could save up a little longer..
+ I don't need monitor too bad, I've got one spare, just not 1080p and it's not even widescreen, but I could always use my TV so that takes it down to 544.79GBP, which is more reasonable
Anyone seen cheaper prices for these?

You can save some money by getting Windows 7 of the pirate bay [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
You could also go with a HD 6850 and oc it to HD 6870 that will save 15GBP Thats about it that you can change to get the same system cheaper!

In future, if you have operating system issues, I'm your man. You shouldn't ever need to take it to a repair shop anyway. I'll hook you up with a clean 100% legit copy of AVG 2012 Business Edition Straight from the AVG website too, if you want. Just take good care of your PC!

Well, I suppose the only reason i would take it to a shop is for hard drive failure and all they do is get a new one and i could do that..
+ I prefer to use security essentials but I guess 2 wont hurt:)
I wont be getting the pc for a while yet, im only on 110GBP xD
Birthdays on wednesday so i'll hopefully get a bit for that:)

Can I add you as a friend for future then?

only just thought of this, would I need any fans with this build?
