Just wondering what price would be best to purchase components for a PC that could run the latest games. I'd like to run them in full 1080p and with settings as high as possible, however, I don't want to be spending way too much money simply for ultra settings. This would be games like Skyrim, Battlefield 3, Assassin's Creed, etc. I've seen many Americans saying $700-$800, but in British Pounds that's only like £500, which didn't seem right?

Thanks



Answer
If you really want a gaming computer that can play any games at max settings, it will be Atleast, $800, not including a monitor and operating system. Heres a breakdown:
CPU - $200
GPU - $200
MoBo - $150
RAM - $40
Hard Drive - $60
Power Supply - $60
Case - $60
Optical Drive - $25

About $850, but don't forget you can get a bunch of sales and rebates to lower it down to about $800

Answer
Your budget doesn't allow you the "best" configuration of a desktop that is "ideal" for gaming.

Perhaps double that would give you something that is approaching a proper gaming rig. This would be an entry level rig.

I'd suggest basing your computer on an Intel socket 1155 build. Go for a H77 motherboard, get one of the entry level Ivy Bridge i3s, 500 GB SATA3 HDD, a 600W modular power supply, 8 GB of 1600 MHz RAM, Windows 7 Home Premium, any cheap SATA optical drive, and something like a GeForce GTX 650. Put that into a midi tower or maxi tower case, for instance the Fractal Design R4 or perhaps an Antec or a HAF-912, and you're set.
