Much appreciated if you could post better results and judge these.


Thanks a lot NGU +Rep is needed

PS: I looking for a gaming computer, nothing really fancy but enough to run for example, Borderlands 2 and Fallout(Maybe) Not looking for something to run Crysis on the highest quality.

UPDATE: I added £20 more and changed some things

I'm not sure if you'd be able to max out Borderlands 2, but you'd be able to run it very well. I haven't played Boarderlands 2 on PC though. Ouch, just saw the power supply. I don't think 500w will cut it. Personally, I'd look for a 750w. I have 1050w in mine and my specs aren't too much better. I like leaving myself with plenty of power to upgrade sometime in the future.

the gfx card is very weak but the cpu is perfect but you should drop the sound card and get a better gfx card such as a 7850 so you know you can play your games well and maybe a getting a amd cpu such as the 4100 with a 7850 is a great budget build that can play bf3. im saying this because there has been many issues with the overpriced 2550k which is rarely seen much anymore. i remember it coming out and not much info about it and im not a amd fanboy but a 110$ fx4100 and a 30$ heatsink such as a hyper 212 and the overclocked fx will perform such as a well as a AMD cpu which everyone likes to hate because they don't know their facts

Not bad but you could probably assemble it yourself for cheaper. However I'd try to get faster RAM modules, possibly 1800Mhz+ for notable improvements in not just gaming but also overall. You should definitely grab a GTX 550 Ti, cheap, affordable and very good for it's price - Costs around £100.

for the same price a 7770 would decimate a 550ti

Not a bad setup for the price

you can run a 560 ti off a 460 watt psu as long as their is enough amps going to the gpu your good unless you have 20 hdd's running on top of a terrible cpu that uses 175 watts full load , for single cards you do not need a 1k psu its a waste of money unless your using sli or crossfire
