Prometheus told me to post a topic here asking for set up help, so here we go.

i was looking at getting this

Intel Pentium g620 (2.6ghz standard, i may try and overclock to 3.1ghz)
4gb ddr3 ram
1tb hdd
1GB GeForce GTX 550 Ti Superclocked NVIDIA Graphics Card

what would you guys get instead? i've got around £750-800 for the full thing.

What do you exactly need to buy? Only the PC, or maybe also display, mouse, kboard, Windows, etc.?

Here you are. It's a way, waaaaaaaaaaay faster system than the one you posted.

PS. The Pentium G620 you mentioned in the first post is not overclockable.

... and for that amount of money, you wanted to buy that Pentium?

Seriously, no.
Ask yojo2 to make a build for you, he rocks at doing that

EDIT
Ah, well there you go
