First of all, sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.

Anyway, out of pure curiosity and boredom I was wondering what kind of builds this community could muster together on a budget.

So my challenge to you is this, submit the best build (can be a parts list, or completed build) you can for £500 or less.

There are a few other details:
> It does not need to include OS.
> It does not need to include peripherals of any kind.
> It is aimed at 1080p gaming as this probably the most viable for this price range, although if you can execute a 1440p, congrats!

Good luck everyone! =D

And since this is just an 'out of boredom' post, its also being closed.

Feel free to read others posts and who are building in a similar price range to see whats currently being recommended.
