Help with building a gaming pc

Hi all,

I'm new to this forum and as you will probably find out I'm new to building PCs!

What I am looking for is a decent gaming pc, no where near top end but somewhere in the middle. I'm looking to spend about £600-700 absolute maximum and then a little more on monitors, mouse, keyboard etc. I have attempted to build my own using this website but whilst I understand some of it, some of it is like a foreign language to me!!

I intend to play some games like DayZ, Minecraft (don't shoot me), Final Fantasy, Warcraft, etc and do this whilst streaming.

If you kind people could help me along by building me something in my price range I'd much appreciate it!

Thanks for your time.

J

That's perfect thank you man, when it says about wireless/wired networking- the product says (wifi not included) what does that mean specifically? as I want the capability to use wifi, probably a stupid question!

Thanks for your help

AS in PM, upgrade to a wireless card in the configurator under networking options, any will do.

This is what the new spec will look like
