The i5-3550 isn't as popular as its overclockable bigger brother (the 3570K) but it doesn't stop it being a fantastic all rounder in a number of tests we put it through.
Whilst the memory provided in the system is budget oriented and has a speed of only 1333mhz, it performs moderately well in all benchmarks which goes to prove that big numbers don't always mean its the quickest or best. For a system of this spec, these results are more than adequate.

That is an exceptional price, before looking at the price I was totting up the prices of all the components and then obviously adding in a bit for CCL and I was thinking this would be coming in at £600-£650 tbh
Good job CCL
Good job CCL
Amazing bit of kit for the price - I had alot of fun with it!
for £500 cant go wrong this is an epic gaming bundle for that price 
Honestly I am glad that something like this got a review. Not everyone on these boards can afford the kind of stuff that typically goes up in the project builds section or even stacks up to most of the showcased builds, and to see something this simple, affordable, and decently powerful might just give the BROKE broke bunch hope. Plus this platform is pretty decently upgradeable: the form factor allows you to swap in something like a Maximus V Gene, move to a 7870 Tahiti LE card, a 3570K, and add a bit of decently clocked RAM, all at reasonable cost and all over time (PSU as well, of course). Anyone actually used this case in a build before? I have actually spec-d out a basic multi-monitor web-surfing home computer for someone based on this chassis and was wondering how this thing was to work with.
