VideoGamer.com has teamed up with EA to offer readers a guide to building a Star Wars: The Old Republic PC. Every reader who follows the guide through to completion and builds their own PC will receive a copy of BioWare's Star Wars: The Old Republic. In addition, one lucky PC builder will win a Radeon HD 7850 graphics card.

The following guide has been produced by a freelancer commissioned by EA.

Want to start PC gaming but scared of the cost and effort involved? Last week we gave you a list of components that cost less than £370 and told you they were capable of playing Star Wars: The Old Republic at a comfortable 50 frames per second. Before they'll do that, though, you'll need to put them together.

If you've never built a PC before, you might be intimidated at the thought of putting together all those expensive components yourself. Don't be. Assembling a PC is simple, and once you've done it you'll be gaming on a machine you've put together by hand, rather than bought off the shelf. That's deeply satisfying.
