Hey there, looking to spend around £800 on a new build. I'm in the UK so I'd prefer sites like [URL="http://www.scan.co.uk"]scan[/URL] and [URL="http://www.ebuyer.com"]ebuyer[/URL].
I'm mostly wanting this build for games like BF3, BF2BC and HD video. I'm currently using a 21" monitor but might expand so a good GPU is a must.
I definitely don't need a monitor, keyboard, mouse etc and i'm hoping to purchase it soon. Thanks.

Is the HD 6970 worth the extra £30 over the GTX 570?
Unless you are going to run 2 monitors (or eyefinity), no.
