Good "Bang for buck"?
#1

Computer Specs I have chosen coming to a total cost of... Ј305...

Just want to point out that, these will all be purchased from scan.co.uk

Specs:

CPU - Intel Pentium Duel Core G860 - Ј49.03
GPU - XFX Radeon HD 7770 - Ј86.12
RAM - 4GB Corsair DDR3 XMS3 1033 mhz (will be upgraded to 8GB) - Ј17.28
HDD - 500GB Hitachi 0F10381 (Will be upgraded to 1TB) - Ј39.72
MOBO - MSI H61M-P31 - Ј31.93
CASE - CiT Jupiter V2 Black Midi Case - Ј29.98
PSU - 430 Watt Corsair CXM Builder Series (85% EFF) - Ј40.12

Total: Ј305.16

Alternatives will be appreciated as long as it costs the same, lets say 'better bang for buck'. I am a school student so I don't have the biggest budget. I feel its the best gaming rig I can build for the price. Would love to hear what you guys think.

If this will all be upgraded eventually, why not keep saving and then get everything right away?

Because that will take me a while :--/ I can get this at the end of the month... I would like an average gaming rig that can play Battlefield, and DayZ (Arma 2 mod). As I researched this, it can, and quite comfortably. Obviously not on extreme, but personally I can't tell much difference
