Decent/Good gaming pc for £700~ in total

[JumpingJerusalem]

I'm not to great at making up my own PC, or knowing what are good parts and what are bad.

So i was just hoping that someone would like to make one up for me in their spare time I play games ranging from League of Legends to shogun total war. I'm not looking for anything godlike, just something good enough to run these games WELL and on above minimum spec.

Thanks.

You could go with an AMD spec to get a better case and upgrade other components within your budget but Shogun 2 pushes your cpu and you would benefit more from an i5.

Probs worth chucking an extra 15 quid on for a 1TB HDD.

That looks great thanks. I think i will get the 1T hardrive, due to shoguns huge size

Do you know if the keyboards and mice are cheaper elsewhere or do you think these are the cheapest around?

Compare to Amazon the logitech k200 (£10) and the logitech usb optical mouse (£5) are similarly priced, I'd get the keyboard and mouse from PCS to get everything in one delivery and be covered by their warranty.
