Hi my Brother is wanting this gaming computerhttp://www.fiercepc.co.uk/mainstream/titan-intel-i5-3570k-custom-gaming-pc/

All i wanted to know if i got all them components would i be able to build it for cheaper or build something even better.

And could some body list the components to buy ? thanks Dan
 
So that's roughly $980 U.S dollars. Here in the U.S, I can make a way better rig for that price. Sadly, i'm not from the UK, so I can't really recommend a good online site. But im sure with-in the next 20min you will get a few that are from the UK, and will be more then happy to help you, GL.

Hi! I'm looking for a gaming PC, but I'm not sure which one to choose. You see, this has to be a present for my BF, so I want to do everything right and make a really worthy purchase. I've looked through many reviews (http://www.pissedconsumer.com/consumer-reviews/computer.html) about computers, but haven't found anything helpful. Can you please advise?

It's a gaming rig, so the SSD can go, so he/she can get a better GPU. 7850 or 7870.
 
You want to spend as much on the graphics card as possible but without compromising other things. I do agree with the above though, get rid off the SSD and get a fast 7200 RPM hard drive instead (1TB would be a good size) and then get a better graphics card. A 7850 or 7870 would be much better than a 650.

Peachy I'd love to help. Several sites offer "build your own" like Maingear and Magic Box. For example http://shop.magicboxsolutions.com/magic-box-gamer-edition/ and www.maingear.com
