I'd like to build my own gaming PC as my mac doesn't cut it for gaming. I'd be grateful if anyone could tell me what I can get with £600 ($1040). I'd like to be able to play Source games on high and crysis on decent settings. So yeah, suggest the best stuff I could get for that money. While I ask, could any of you suggest a good UK based equivalent of NewEgg? In before "Just get bootcamp on your mac". |

Just get bootcamp on your mac. Its a completely logical response. |

http://www.sharkyextreme.com/guides/index.php May has a guide for Value PC which is a $1000 budget cap. Feel free to check more recent months, however, as prices constantly change, obviously. |

Well, he seems to be using British Pounds as his currency. That narrows it down a bit. |

I read USD at first, 600 pounds is much more to work with. A grand is enough to build you one ♥♥♥♥ beast of a box. Now do you have an OS or should I include that in the price? |
