I am planning a build for later this summer. I have a budget of £700 ($1074.01). I have already chosen the case, Fractal Design Define R5, and I would like to use a boot SSD as well as a 1TB HDD. Also I have a mouse and keyboard. Aside from that I need to decide on all the other components, I will also need to buy a monitor for that price as well. I don't mind paying an extra £100 ($153.43) if I need to. does anyone else have any idea as to what other components I could get to for fill a gaming / light productivity, i.e Microsoft office and light Photoshop, machine. Whatever help you could offer would be much appreciated.
I made this in a few minutes. It may not be exactly what you want to do, but you get a lot of bang for your buck and if gaming is the main purpose you can do a lot with this build. You may want to upgrade to an 8350 you get a lot of overhead for OC. I got mine up to 5.1 Ghz stable.
