Hey there, I am looking for the best bang for my buck, I currently own a case, monitor and hard drive. But I am looking to finish my build for 420 pounds!
1. 4 or more cores for processor (I am fine with both intel and AMD)
2. GPU able to run games like skyrim in ultra with no problems.
3. 4gb of DDR3 1600mhz at least.
4. ATX motherboard.
5. PSU able to run this all :)
6. Links to UK sites with all parts :)
Thanks for reading!
 
Monitor resolution as well please? no point in throwing a huge card at a small res screen :)
but I'll put one in anyway, not a bad card

I'd be looking at an AMD 955BE build, should get a decent play out of an AsRock m3a770de (bout £48 these days)

Theres plenty of room to up the graphics card and and aftermarket cooler if you intend to overclock, which you do :p
