Need help building a desktop :(

[sean.borrow]

Hi i am new to this, and also a virgin to building a computer.

I have looked around at parts and read several forums but it is all
just scrambling my brain. lol

I am looking to build a strictly gaming PC will be used for gaming
only and i have a budget of around £800-900 maybe could be stretched a little more if need be.

Any advice/recommendation would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks alot .

What kind of games will you be playing, Will you be doing photo/video editing things like that...

 

[sean.borrow]

Will just be purely gaming like BF3, Arma ... etc and just minor internet browsing but thats all .

If you look here this will a heap of parts that you will need DIY Christmas Gifts - Newegg.com

Like i said this is my first time building not really sure of makes/specs etc lol

You can actually buy a kit, All the parts are carefully chosen for compatibility and then you just have to put it together Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, LED LCD TV, Digital Cameras and more! - Newegg.com

I don't think thats over priced, You may want a bigger hard drive like a 1TB..

Just an example sean (Barebone Bundle) -

AMD FX-6 Six Core 6300 Processor
2 x 4GB DDR3 1333Mhz Memory
Novatech Gaming Tower Case
750W Gaming PSU
AMD 970 Chipset

You just add a Hard Drive,Optical Drive, and OS

That CPU is LGA2011 and therefore will not work in that board.

I would go with the i5-3570K and upgrade the hard drive to a 1TB 7200RPM model.
