I have a budget of 800GBP and don't know which build would be better, I might do a bit of Streaming / videos for YouTube along the line

I want to be able to play BF4 with at least 30fps on Ultra settings

I haven't used AMD before so I don't know if they are good or not

The second one has a SSD so i would say the second one.Also the R9 280X might perform better when mantle is coming out.

This build will perform better if you aren't planning to overclock at all.

I'd go with the second build but change the 280X to the 770. Then it'll be near perfect.

Thats fine, in that case i would recommend the build below. It is over budget because of a few reasons. The motherboard uses better components and is a great price for what it offers, it also looks pretty sweet. I put an SSD in there because it will offer great start up speed and also loading times of games on there would be reduced too. You could reduce the cost of the build by ditching the SSD or changing the case, but as i own the same case i'd say it's worth going thirty quid over budget.

thanks for that but wouldn't the EVGA GTX 770 SC ACX be better or would it be pretty much the same?
