Hi all,
one of my friends is looking to build a new gaming rig up to £1000.
I was going to suggest the same build I had help with last week on the forum. But what with price changes and what not, as with tech i'm sure there are price differences in that space of time!
No keyboard and mouse required, no OS required, no monitor.
Only PC, only used for gaming and usual everyday PC tasks.
In his words "ideally with some RGB, as I like shiny pretty things"
This what I started with. But im sure it can be improved/more efficient spending. Also not sure where to go with cooler.
