Gaming PC for around £700

[manic0]

Hi

I have around £700 and want to spend it on a gaming pc which can play Skyrim (with mods), Payday 2 and other (less demanding) games.

I also need the OS and would like a mouse and keyboard.

Thanks!

If you want, drop to the 270x GPU and upgrade the CPU cooler for £19

Thanks. Will do that since its cheaper.

There is no need to upgrade the cpu cooler, the stock AMD cpu cooler is perfectly suitable for the spec. If it is mainly for gaming and your budget is £700 I would suggest sticking with the best GPU within your budget.

I would prefer to go a bit lower than £700 though, so i think its fine.
