Hi guys as you can probably tell by the number of posts I am brand spanking new to these forums. So don't be too harsh on me!
Right, I am looking to start pc gaming as I have a long 4 month summer ahead of me as well as the next 4 years (student) and wanting to fill out the time with some friends.
So being a complete pc noob and through only my research online I have came up with a few specs that I should be aiming for in a gaming pc build. You guys can tell me otherwise. Looking for it to be under 800 pounds hopefully due to not being a very rich student!
Processor: i5 2500k
GPU: nvidia gtx 660
Psu: 650w corsair 80+
Ram: 8gb have no clue on brand or other specialisations
Hard drive: won't need anymore than 250gb (possible to get ssd with my budget?)
Mobo: have no idea whatsoever on what to get!
Would it be realistic to get a desktop with this spec for the price set? I am not afraid to get dirty and build it myself if it saves cost etc. or not such a build is already pre made! Trying to get a bare minimum gaming pc spec built here so don't be afraid to tell me where I should be chopping and changing.
Great Thanks to Anyone who replies!
