Buying a custom PC, is this good enough?

I'm looking to buy a PC from a website which builds it for you. I would like to be able to run Minecraft at a minimum of 60 fps and max settings, maybe even be able to play some other games but nothing much. I also would like to be able to edit with software such as Photoshop, After Effects.

Here are the specs:
• Processor (CPU)
Intel® Core™i5 Quad Core Processor i5-4440 (3.1GHz) 6MB Cache
• Motherboard
ASUS® Z87M-PLUS: m-ATX, USB3.0, SATA 6.0, XFIRE
• Memory (RAM)
8GB KINGSTON DUAL-DDR3 1600MHz (1 x 8GB)
• Graphics Card
1GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 650 - DVI, mHDMI, VGA - 3D Vision Ready
• Memory - 1st Hard Disk
1TB 3.5" SATA-III 6GB/s HDD 7200RPM 32MB CACHE

What is the best gaming pc for €800 that delivers to Ireland?

I'm looking to get a gaming pc for about €800, I know that it is alot cheaper to just build a custom PC but I do not feel that I would be able to do that.

I have been looking at a few websites such as
http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/
http://alienware.ie/
and http://www.komplett.ie/Komplett/site/KomplettHome.aspx
but I have no idea which one is good/bad. I'm mostly into console gaming so i don't really want to pay for a pc that is over €800, i mostly use my current laptop to play Minecraft, stream movies and render videos (I currently don't play other games because my laptop can't handle them very well)

I was going to buy the alienware x51 (i5) for €799 but alot of people say that they are over priced for the components that are actually init so i'm hoping that somebody can help be out by sending me a link to a pc that is better than the alienware x51 for about €800 because if i can't find a better one ill just end up buying the x51 because thats about the only one i know that is good for gaming (my friend has it and says its really good)

If you are sending me a link to one that is on http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/ all the pcs are listed in pounds (£) so €800 would be about £655.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Added (1). Also the HDD must be at least 500 GB but preferably 1 TB

3d building games.like minecraft but better graphics?

Does anyone know any games/software for building stuff (houses/landscape) I have looked at 3d game makers but they are too complicated for what I want. Sort of like minecraft but less blocky. I also don't want to spend loads of money on it.

Added (1). What I want isn't really a game, more like a 3d builder. Just not too complicated.

We talk online. But not in person?

So I've been talking with him on Facebook, and we have long conversations… On a Saturday night we even talked till it was like 2:30 in the morning!
Well, when we head back to school, we don't even talk in person… I always see him in the mornings at breakfast, and always walk right past him, giving each other eye contact, when I'm heading to 4th period…
I was about to say something to him, but I was too shy, because he is always with a group of people sometimes, or sometimes he is with his buddy…

(I'm the who sometimes start the conversations and sometimes he does too on Facebook)

Our conversations is about Minecraft, Zelda, and anime. (Stuff we have in common)
Well, I'm just wondering why he only talks online but not in person? Do I have to start the conversations?

Is there a demon around me?

I have a problem with self harm and over a year ago when I started getting better and actually happy something started messing with me in my house. Things from foot steps, unexplainable noises, feeling it on my bed, feel it walk up behind me, and feeling watched constantly. It didn't like my boyfriend. It hit his car when were were leaning against it, hit the inside of his trunk when he was driving away, even saw a figure of a man watch him leave one time. Eventually it all stopped and I had depression problems an selfharm again. Recently I haven't been hurting myself and trying to get better and 2 nights ago the power went out and the darkness scared me and I felt heavily watched. Lastnight I was alone playing minecraft and something touched my shoulder. Is I a demon? Why is it obsessed with me and what does it want? Is it coming back?
