    £650 is probably the highest i would want to go. I could spare a little bit more but im over my original budget as it is.

    I'd try to get a caviar black rather than the standard HDD you selected.

    For your budget is a good spec, it should play battlefield 3 without any problems. If you are able to push your budget a bit more you could consider the FX-4170 and a better case for cooling (PCS Maelstrom T900).
