Hi Guys,

Am now ready to upgrade major parts of my current system to gaming spec.

Basically, the parts I am looking to change are CPU, Gfx, Ram, Mobo and possibly PSU.

Any ideas on what would make a really good spec for around £400 would be appreciated.

Cheers

Pretty sure most attending will be dressed up to the nines,while mrs barky and myself will be the token glasgow scruffs!

Never been to an award ceremony before so may be interesting,or may be utterly dreadful.

Either way its an evening away from the children-lol!

Spotted this on Aria, they only have 5 left but the price is amazing. The next cheapest I can find it Dabs @ £144.41:
