This is the build that I would go for. I have kept it red apart from the case. But it has a window so you can see your red build. Getting a good case is a hell of alot more important than one that looks nice. And the Phanteks Pro is an amazing case for the money, I also got you a 256GB SSD.

^^ haha yeah, hopefully will get a few more fps than a type writer, worth the £900 then. Anyway, I have good news. I might be getting £70 on top of my phone selling, which hoepfully means I can buy a

No point at all geting a 290X X2 By the time 4K becomes the standard better and cheaper cards will be out. Save your money.

ok right, I am so stupid. Basically i forgot amazon didn't take paypal, so it means spending like £20 more from everywhere else. I know it sounds stupid but that is the difference between the 1tb drive and an ssd, so I have to go with the 1tb drive :(

 

buying it all now

the problem is I don't have the money, I would go for an SSD straight away but I still have to buy the case tomorrow when my phone sells, and at the moment the budget isn't allowing it, I can live with slow boot times, you have to understand i have lived with them for 5+ years and I have never had a 50fps framerate lol, I am going to buy this pc now :)

 

sorry for my ignorance :P it's just i want to buy it and I won't be able to afford the case with an ssd :(

Well that was a coincidence as I was looking at the H230 when you mentioned the H440. I bring you H440s sexy friend:

Updated version of my case.

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-089-XG&groupid=2362&catid=1572

Corsair Carbide 230T would be worth a look as well, there is a red and black version...

You do realise it is a mega pain in the ass moving the OS over onto a different drive?

If you leave it on the HDD then there is no point in having an SSD! There is a very good reason I am strongly encouraging you to get one. At least leave it till you have all the money together tomorrow and think about it.

Anyway, I have good news. I might be getting £70 on top of my phone selling, which hoepfully means I can buy an SSD with the money. I have to buy a desk as well but I have found one for £20, so that means about 50 quid, however I may be able to conjure up 10 quid off of my dad meaning i will be able to buy the samsung. If not i will stick with the corsair ssd for about 50 quid :)

Fecking better then mine. Its about average. Government wants everyone to have 8Mbps down so your fine good as far as there concerned :P

yeah, worries me slightly when i see most streamers have like 100mbps download and 10mbps upload, still takes me like 6 hours to download tf2 using wireless, that might be where I am going wrong though lol

Wireless should no make a difference to download speed unless your router and adaptor card is rubbish (which I doubt it). To stream in HD you need a minimum of 1Mbps upload- if your playing multilayer then that obviously needs to be more. Most IP packages that offer that kind of upload are generally the upper end of the market.

Using a wireless router will increase your latency substantially though which is why its generally considered to be best to use a Cat 5/6 cable to the router instead.

yeah, well I guess our sky package was never upgraded, lol we are probably paying near the price of a fibre optic package, just sky are crap around our area. Well, that means no streaming for me then lol. Ok, thanks for the info. I thought wireless was worse in many ways, although I haven't seen much difference when using wired
