OK I need help building a gaming rig. I only need the cpu no monitor or anything Cos I have a decent one anyway.

I'm hoping to spend under £400 on a decent Gaming computer. And I'm gonna build it myself, or get someone to help or whatever.

But I need to know what's the best stuff I can get for my budget.

Help and advice is much appreciated.

Wow. That was a quick reply. What's a good case to go with those components and what cooling system. Will I be able to get a decent case and cooling system for around £400?

If I get that case. Will I be able to fit all those components in with ease? And what about the PSU?

Vec, check out This Thread for budget builds. They're all in Brit pricing, and all good machines.

This is the best I could come up with £400.

Those parts you showed in the screenshot, could they fit in the case I linked? If they could I will prolly just go for that stuff you linked. Cos it's good enough for gaming and it's in my price range.

I took a look at the case and I don't see any reason why it wouldn't fit. So I think you are all set.

Firstly, only get 2GB of RAM and up the CPU to something better. Also, Swap the 9800 with a 4850. Change the motherboard with the P5Q Pro, it's a tad more expensive but well worth it (will let you crossfire later on).

Just my
