Hi all, So, had a budget of around GBP1000 for a gaming pc (BF3/Skyrim/SC2 mainly), but the problem has been because I'm living in Norway atm, I had to find out what would be cheaper : buying parts in Norway or the UK. turns out the UK is cheaper by about 200 quid.

So, here's my build: Part list permalink / Part price breakdown by merchant

A couple of points : You'll notice I dont have a case listed. This is because I'll be able to get an old case here,and then keep it here when I travel back.

EDIT : Added that it was a gaming pc, and changed some components round.

Thats bout it. Let me know what you think.
