Hi guys
first time trying to build a gaming pc.
Just wanted to get your opinion on this PC. Basically I want to keep this PC as it is and not upgrade for 2 to 3 years ( except if I'm adding ram)

Green hard drives spin down after 10 seconds or so of inactivity, which means they spin up and down constantly if they're accessed. That wears the disk out much more than just spinning. That's why they're targeted as archive drives, not drives for regular use.
Jase2985: and in a system like that what would it be used for? everyday use/games and apps would be on the SSD
garvani: Core i7 wouldnt be a bad idea, all new games are targeted towards the consoles which have 8 threads, its true that games at present only use 4 cores but this may not be the case in a years time.
Youve only got ddr3-1333 ram, get 1866 at the least.
Would go with a samsung 840/850 ssd.
Gpu is where i would throw any left over money
