  I wouldn't buy this rig, even at this price.
  
  trust me, I've been building systems for the past 75 years.

  What's the point of pairing a K-series unlocked CPU with an H61 motherboard - no overclocking possible

  Looked at the mobo, isn't a quality mobo, but for this price and build it isn't bad at all

  Considering the 2600k is around the £230-250 mark alone this is a damn good deal, espesh for those not willing to self build
  
  From my estimates, your making about £70-90 saving on this as opposed to self build!

  ASUS P8H61 - 45.53£

  NVidia GTX550Ti- £89.98
  8GB DDR3 - £33.30
  Total = 453.83 and that without a case and cpu so even It's not mine type of GPU and HDD i have to admit price is damn good.

  That's a damn good spec for the price, shame they put in a 550 ti, if they put a i5 2500k in and a 6850/6870, it would have been an even better gaming rig! Obviously, if you're doing lots of multi-threaded tasks, the i7 will pay for itself fairly rapidly though.

  you could say this is for the more light/moderate gamer system and for those that cant be bothered to build a rig and with only £500 to dispose of. I welcome any better offers, so I may consider cancelling my current order if it tickles my pickle :D

  Always bought dells but wanna get into PC gaming - this or build a system (with no real knowledge of where to start)?
  
  Custom PC magazine wants me to spend like a £1000 for a decent i5 system.

  well I'm trying to build myself. The good point - I know what I want and what I will get inside. Bad point - sometimes it's hard to get cheap parts if You are looking for particular one. In this deal I would worried a little bit about the PSU as You don't want to fry your cpu with cheap one, but that's just mine opinion. I prefer to wait a month longer and spend 70£+ for PSU than 15-20£ and worried every day :-)

  If your budget is less than £500 and you dont need a monitor then get this. You probably wouldnt be able to build better for less (i myself would spend the extra £90 for the version with the OS and monitor).

  If I bought this, would there be any issues at all swapping out the GFX Card for a high end one? (Say a 7950 for example?) Size, compatibility, power, anything?
  
  After trying to make some minor upgrades to my current PC and failing miserably (3TB hard drive - not supported on MOBO, also didn't realise I needed to buy a SATA cable too, and then HD 6850 bought - PSU not powerful enough) I'd rather keep it as simple as possible, and this deal seems like it might b spot on for that.

  They will probably give a poor, unbranded 500W power supply. Personally if i was going to spend £250-300 on a graphics card i'd get a power supply from a well known and reliable manufacturer (i.e. Corsair, XFX).

  yeah, same thought here, You would have to change PSU first. Sometimes cheap 500W psu can hardly handle 300W. Corsair or collermaster 650W at least will give you piece of mind for another 2-3 years.

  you wanted to say Seasonic, right?

  price not bad, but if I consider the poor H61 mobo with no overclocking capabilities, stock fan - no serious overclocking again, only so-so gpu, cheap and ugly case with loud fans, weak no name, buzzing PSU...the deal kinda loses its shine.
  
  yeah, it's relatively cheap, but apart from that i7, there's nothing superb about it.
  
  also, with Ivy Bridge out, I wouldn't call Sandy Bridge new...
