Is this an OK build?

Hi guys I was wondering if this was an ok build.

I want to use this pc for photoshop, editing and gaming mainly. I have't got the best budget (£400-450) which is why I have chosen to go for cheaper components.

I don't plan on overclocking just yet and I hope to build within the next month

Thanks in advance

Sure, it is an "OK" build. Not great, but "OK".

Looks fairly solid for a budget build. Where in the UK are you buying your components? We may be able to shave off a few £ if you are using an online etailer.

I would up the ram to 8gigs. Unless things have changed photoshop has always been quite memory hungry and it's cheap enough.

I was hoping Aria/Scan/Ebuyer a mixture of the three.
