 New Computer Spec - Any Comments - rtj70
The retail version of the CPU mention above is the Intel Core i5 3470 and is about £150. The newer Haswell CPU is the Intel Core i5 4570 and is about £157. This processor has much faster integrated graphics and would probably be all you need. Well if you think the ancient GTS 210 from nvidia is good enough :-)

Haswell is a socket 1150 CPU so needs a different motherboard - so a little future proofing as next year there will be a faster CPU for that socket. This newer motherboard would be a little more expensive.
