Intel Core i5 4670K Quad Core, Gigabyte 7970 3GB AMD Radeon Graphics Card running on a ASRock Z87 EXTREME4 Motherboard with G.Skill Ripjaws (8gb x2) 16GB RAM set at 1600MHz. 120gb ssd and a 1TB Seagate. The PSU is a Corsair HX850 and a corsair h80i water cooler
Is it worth it and will it be good for gaming?
 
Solution
Price for these components (sans graphics card) new, comes to around £674. Given the age of the card, I suspect £60 would be ok for that, but you shouldn't be paying new prices for old components.

I think the asking price is a bit high (probably ok if comes with Windows OS).

Selecting a best answer marks this thread as solved. Some people would see that and not bother to even look twice at it. Since this thread is marked as solved, I'd probably recommend that you create a new thread with both build offerings listed and request which one is better for £650.

If you do create a new thread. Reply in this thread with a request to close it.

I figure most would say the Intel build, but someone may come up with another idea.
