Riggy,

Not to volunteer BrotherTobious unecessarily but both he and Gortex live in P'mouth and I'm sure have sufficient skill to put it together for you. Might save you a few bob as well.

Quote from: Riggy;361036Any recommendation as to where to buy this then since you can probably tell I am not going to be building anything myself :P

Still not sure if it is worth doing right now in terms of noticing a big difference in gameplay other than the blue lights glowing when it's dark :)

can be adjusted and made cheaper with much ease

I can definately vouch for Ducky's recommended motherboard, RAM and accessories. I have the same board (as recommended by Ducky) and it's excellent! Consider a sealed watercooler for the CPU. I have an Antec cooler and it's quiet and works a treat.

Never trusted retailers building the rig for you, often seen retailers replacing bits ordered to scam customers for a buck or 10.. :/

You should be able to trust NF or Gortex ;)

found pc specialist to be rather expensive and limited in brands
