[ShadowGaming]

Im sorta poopie with making pcs i have a £1500 budget and i am looking for a gaming rig and to video edit / record or even livestream in future anyone think they can make me a good setup ??

well start with an ivybridge i7 processor and the default motherboard along with about 16GB of ram and say a GTX 560 graphics card, see what else you can get within budget (maybve upgrade the graphics card if you want too) and dont forget to make sure youve got a half decent case and then post the results here then i'll make a few suggestions

as vanthus says but i'd go for a small ssd as the first hard drive instead
just coulnt be bothered to knock something up

 

[ShadowGaming]

why the green cavair ?

 

[ShadowGaming]

and also any way i can lower the price a bit so i can add a good monitor to ?

 

[vanthus]

Just thought I'd throw in a second hard drive,handy for storage & backups,thats what I have,
but if you dont want it dont select it.
Ah,you didn't say you wanted a monitor,you could drop the second hard drive & add a monitor,to see what it comes to.

 

[ShadowGaming]

Raised the cavier black to 2tb and dropped the green caviar added a £129 monitor and comes to =£1,463
