New gaming pc help

[rajan187]

Hi, this is my 1st time building a gaming pc. I have looked at some specs but im not sure if they are any good, any feedback would be good, or if anyone want to help me out with putting together some parts that would be great. My budget is about £500-550. I already have a Sapphire Radeon HD 5770 1 GB DDR5 2DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort PCI-Express Video Card but not too sure if it is any good. I only want to build the tower as i have everything else. I wont be overclocking because i dont know anything about it. I will be buying all my parts from ebuyer and i am from the UK.
The parts i looked at are:

Monitor resolution is?

I wont be overclocking because i dont know anything about it.

If no one ever did anything because they didn't yet know how, nothing would ever happen and we'd be living in the stone age. Overclocking isn't very difficult, you can learn how to do it just by reading up on guides. Not that it's in any way necessary. Since overclockable components cost extra cash, on your budget it may be wiser to spend on or save for a video card upgrade.

You shouldn't get an i5 2500k if you're not overclocking

The list you have looks pretty decent. The choice between an i5 2500K and i3 2100 basically comes down to how much money you want to spend. If getting the i3 means that you can upgrade the GPU sooner, I'd say to go for that.

Some suggestions:
- Mobo: You can get a newer Z77 mobo like this GA-Z77-D3H for about the same price.
- RAM: Non fancy RAM doesn't make much of a performance difference and saves some cash.
- Case/PSU: The Cooler Master GX series of PSU isn't anything to write home about. An alternative is to get an Antec Three Hundred Two (with front panel USB 3.0) and an OCZ ZS 550W (not spectacular but not bad either) for about the same price.
