    4. Can you use any parts from an old computer? Yes! I have Hard drive, blu-ray disc drive, motherboard & CPU.

    5. Do you need a monitor? No

    5a. If yes, what size do you need. -

    5b. If no, what resolution is your current monitor and do you plan to upgrade in the near future? 21 inch Max Resolution : 1680x1050

    My aim would be to get a 7850 graphics card, 8GB RAM, solid PSU and I'm not fussed about a case.
