Building a PC for a mate and have come up with the below. Things to note:
- I have a 770 that I'll be putting in for him just to get him started. Granted it's a bit underwhelming for this build but at least if he doesn't enjoy PC gaming I've saved him a couple hundred in not buying a new GPU. Equally if he gets into it he could always get a 1070 later.
- Already have a headset for him
- I note the screen has AMD's sync technology, but I've chosen it for its 75hz over 60hz.
Is there anything I've obviously missed? Or anything I should change up?
Will be buying at 12:30 today when I see him.
Thanks all
