I'm guity of making these sorts of posts 3 or 4 times in the past year but we now have the money available and ready and were finally gonna get my girlfriends brother a computer he can game on and make videos on.
We are going from scratch here, so everything is needed. We have a Keyboard and a mouse spare and he has a gaming headset already too. We're looking for a gaming computer that I can build (or if someone else is selling one cheaper second hand close to Wolverhampton we'd jump at it)
Key features of what I would like for him (or otherwise look at my PC I built 2 years ago)
At very least a 3 core AMD or Quad core (either make).
A non-shoddy Mobo and PSU
4GB of RAM (DDR3 pref)
A decent graphics card (I've looked at 5670 Sapphire but I'm really open on this)
Cheapest case possible (Xcilio Godspeed 1 is on special atm for £23)
A monitor (Quite happy to go for the £75 19" one on this to help with the graphics situation)
