Answer
I don't like the LINE-M
It is top-mount power supply
Using 1x8GB CAS 10 RAM
You lose RAID performance of 7%, and CAS 10 is not as good as CAS 9
You are also paying a premium for tall profile heat spreader because low profile of that RAM is on sale.
May want a cheaper power supply. You don't need 600W
Missing Windows operating system
Missing optical drive
7 parts are $564

You will need a better CPU Cooler to do good overclock

$559 - better case and balanced ram. SOme rebates ending fast

ADD: GTX 660 is a nice choice. Some bottleneck by the CPU can be improved by overclock
in high cpu need games

Good gaming PC for £650 or under?

Ok so i am looking for a decent PC that will run all the Call Of Duty's(mainly waw, BO and MW3) and Skrim on a good framerate with no lag...and minecraft, but the specs don't need to be great to run minecraft anyway...that's already built...as i do not really know much about specs etc. My budget is £650 but i could push it up to £700 if necessary. Is this possible? Or will i have to pay i ridiculous amount for all of this? I will be very grateful for any advice or tips(:
Thanks in advance(:



Answer
this computer can handle all the games you mentioned. the operating system (Windows 7) is preinstalled (£492)

additionally you need of course a monitor, a 22" monitor (£116)

a pair of speakers (£17)
