Hi, i'm building my first PC and I don't really know what im doing, and would like some help! :)
I have a budget around about £1500 but this is a very flexible number as I will be building this over time and not all at once .

I would like this build to be able to play any game and ultra graphics with at minimum 60 fps at 1080p but I would love it to have a higher fps at around 100-120 so if you could pin point out what i would need it would be great! 😀 and thank you for the help :)

If anymore information is needed or I have worded something strange so you don't understand me just ask :)

I didn't include a case, because at your price level, the case is really up to you, and based on what case you think looks good. You have a 120 GB SSD for your OS and games (have to uninstall games you don't actually play, and a regular (but fast) HDD for your media and not brand new games. Optical is there so you have an optical, don't need a good one now a days anyways.

I have a separate budget for things like my monitor keyboard and mouse and would be buying them after i have completed my build

Thanks for the help :) and this will be able to run games like BF4 and other alike at ultra with a good fps?
 


it shouldn't have any issues at 1920x1080, as long as you're only using one monitor.
 


nice one 😀 well i have just added all the extras i wanted and im actually still £200 under budget which is nice 😀 so thank you for all the help you have been amazing ^_^
 


http://pcpartpicker.com/p/301qp These parts are all in my current build and im averaging 100+ frames on most games and that is why i got the 144hz monitor that i included into the build. This build is most definitely top notch and i recommend it for sure if u have any questions about the parts please ask

 

Nice, under 200 quids is great; I assume you have an OS, and since you have 200 extra quids, you can either spend it on rent/food/gaming peripherals 😛
