No.

Tell us youre budget (and the components that aren´t broken) und we will build a PC for you, whitch is a lot better.

my budget is very low as the guy i dated used me. i have hardly any money because it was spent on building a future with him (not knowing he was just using me for money and goods) and his uncle broke my computer.... bunch of mental cases.



my budget is £180- £200. i have a flat to look after and i shouldnt even be paying for a new motherboard as it was his responsibility. some sick people in the world =/

200£ for a whole computer?
Or only the mainboard? Because you get good mainboards for 60€

What CPU do you have?

also thanks for taking the time to help :)

At first you should decide what components you want to use (CPU, RAM etc.). After that you can pick the mainboard.

i have the ram, hard drive, they are not broken. i have a 1.5TB of hard drive and 2x 4Gb ram

The cpu will be down to the motherboard

i am thinking of getting this one as i hear its good for gaming


by the looks of it the CPU will be intel

Ok this graphics card ist crap. This card isn´t made for playing other games than tetris oder minesweeper.

Ok you habe RAM and HDD. This is great and you can use it.

I don´t knew shops in the UK, so I made this config on a german price comparison site. In the EU mode there are also UK Shops listet.

I dont recomment a Z87 board, because you can't use the features if you don't overclock. The Xeon is as fast as a i7 4770k, but you can't overclock the Xeon. But thats ok. It has more than enough power for gaming and video editing.

In the uk the Xeons are pricey, but i found a decent motherboard that is compatable with intel chips

i will probably get [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] what do you guys think? i think its a good deal =D

I showed you all the components to buy and they will cost the same in the UK. Look at my link. There are also UK Shops listet.

Don't by something else, because I made the best possible config (you can ask other people in the forum here and they will tell you exactly the same).

it looks like it is going to cost me over 200 which is my budget, i can't afford to gear out the whole pc. i just want my pc to work for dayz. i used to have an asrock motherboard with AMD celron graphics and some high end games worked good on low graphics.

if i upgrade the cpu and motherboard then i might be able to run games on medium graphics. i already have a pc. i have most components already. my pc is built but my ex broke my motherboard. he broke the Port where you plug in the monitor but its broke the motherboard too

You told us, youre whole PC is broken. Only RAM and HDD work. So I build an PC without that. Now you tell us that you have all components. Only the motherboard not.

Maybe you decide what is true, so we can help us. The best would be, if you list ALL the parts you have at the moment and are not broken.
