    Get a bigger HDD (more space IS NOT a luxury!) with 32mb cache.

    Also, if you want your PC to last quite a bit longer/more powerful get the AMD X6 1050T. It's double the price on newegg compared to your current CPU though.

    I'll have to buy the PC as it is, only the GFX card is something they could replace, i'll need to buy a new HDD after purchasing the PC with those specs, then have to install it myself (Which i don't fancy doing with a new PC) Is that HDD really bad?

    5770 is a good card, dual 5770 can run metro 2033 on max settings.

    and you never buy a 500 gb when a 1 tb drive with 32mb cache cost almost the same. (there arnt much of a difference in price)

    The HDD is not bad, its just you can get 500 gb more for a few more dollars.

    If you buy it from a local store (and not some big chain of stores) you could try to ask if they're willing to do it, providing you pay the difference.

    Or you could ask someone you know that has a bit of decent PC experience to build it for you if you don't know how to yourself.

    I hear ya man, i would upgrade the HDD if it was an option, thanks for the advice <3

    That PC costs $948/£613, So i'd say it's not toooo bad, although i admit if there was more upgrade options i'd get more for my money.

    It's decent but you could do better for the money, if you build it yourself you could probably get a Phenom II X4 955 setup for not much more. Personally if i was in the market for a new comp today i wouldn't get anything less than a i5 750 and GTX 460 setup.

    You could play around with some of the DinoPC builds if you're not comfortable building your own:

    They offer a i5 760 setup for less than the one you selected at Overclockers UK, i would just switch the PSU to a 700W OCZ.
