just under 1100 euros, im sure wow (and maybe sc) arent 'that' intense, but on that resolution I'm not sure if that budget will get you there, certainly not with other games.
Step 1: Order Parts from UK suppliers
Step 2: Assemble
Step 3: ????????
Step 4: PROFIT!
Less Trolly version: You can get parts from local sellers pretty cheap and assemble a awesome computer yourself.
People post on their blogs all the time on new parts that are affordable and awesome, i suggest looking for some of those.

£950 is closer to $1000 when buying rather than directly exchanging and most places (newegg, tigerdirect) don't ship to the UK for that exact reason, they'll eventually expand and sell products for more than they're worth because quite simply put, they can.
Where in the UK, because if you are in the Basingstoke area I'll build you one if you pay me in beer ^^

Because he won't be getting the best performance for his money with that much spent on GPU whilst having other areas that need upgrading, budget-management you could say.
the cpu will be the bottle neck for the gpu
What site is that Synthaxx?
I wish I'd have money left over to buy one these shiny mechanical keyboards which are supercool :<

its slightly more than your 950 pound budget but its an awesome buiild with what looks like excellent installation. If i was in england i would have bought it instead of building my own.
