I am build a pc for gaming and i have a £750 budget.

These are the components i am looking to buy so far:

CASE: Fractal Design Define R3

MOBO: Asus-P8Z68-V-PRO

CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K 3.3GHz Quad Core Processor

GPU: Zotac GeForce GTX 560Ti 448 edition

PSU: 650W Corsair HX650 Modular Power Supply

I already have 8gb of ram and a 1tb hdd

Please can you tell me if this Pc is good or can you give me some recommendations which are better than these components.

thank you
 
I'm no expert but that looks pretty good to me, what does the build amount to price wise? Also what RAM will you be putting into the board?

The only thing i'd change is from the Zotac to the MSI Twin Frozr Edition of the 560ti, not sure if it's more expensive or not.
 
Wait for Ivy Bridge to be released at the end of April and pick up an IB CPU and Mobo. You could also wait for the mid-range Nvidia Keplers to be released. You may also want to pick up an SSD to use as a cache drive. Apart from that it looks good.
 
I agree with waiting for IB and z77 even if you don't buy them the SB/z68 prices should drop. The corsair ram is fine, just wanted to check

Yeah if your not buying until May/June the market should have changed quite a bit by then so the stuff you'll get will probably be very different, then, than now.
