  1. All other specs the same? Also same video card, 7850?

     

    I suppose the parts aren't quite what I would pick, but at least this time it should be pretty decent. HD7850 might not max out the visual settings, but the CPU is good enough to last you for a long while. In short it's not bad.

     

     

     

    I just get so confused when looking at the parts and figuring out which motherboard is compatible with the CPU I want.

    That shouldn't be a problem - if you decide to build it, people here can just give you a complete list of parts to buy.

     

    The only parts that can be a concern are the mechanics, i.e. handling the parts, putting in the screws, securing the connectors. Very easy for anyone with any experience handling the internals of anything, but might be daunting without.

     

    Yeah it's got the same video card too.

     

    I am confident I would be able to put the machine together, plus my girlfriend has just informed me that her uncle used to build computers, but isn't really clued up on the latest parts these days.

  2. Thanks for all of the information and feedback guys. I don't really want to build my own PC right now, as I wouldn't know where to start, and don't know anybody who would either. I just get so confused when looking at the parts and figuring out which motherboard is compatible with the CPU I want.

     

    However, I have found the same spec PC, but with a Intel I5 Ivy Bridge 3450 3.10ghz CPU + Gigabyte Z77-DS3H Motherboard for £40 more. I can't really go much higher than that either as £600 is my maximum limit.

  3. Hi all.

     

    I have never really been into PC gaming, but I want to move from the Xbox 360 to PC to play Skyrim. I am looking at purchasing the following and just wondered how it would cope?

     

    AMD FX 4170 AM3+ Quad Core 4.2Ghz CPU

    Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 Motherboard

    1 TB Serial ATA Hard Drive

    8 GB DDR3 1600 PC 12800 Memory

    ATI 7850 2GB Windows

    750W PSU

    Vantage case

    Windows 7.

     

    All for £537 (around $860).

     

    Do you think this will run Skyrim on ultra and cope well with mods, or would I need something beefier?

     

    Thanks for looking and the advice.
