As per title. User is looking for best gaming and video encoding ability. A pointer in the right direction would be grand.

CPU is more important in priority than GPU for them as they'll be getting a handed down model in a few months.

The best pre-built option is probably to have someone spec you a list for your budget.

If you contact OCUK with a list of parts, they'll build that for a fee and offer all of the benefits you might get (warranty etc) from buying a regular pre-build.

Off the top of my head I imagine the cost to build would be around the £100-150 range, so you'd have a budget of roughly £1000 to play with.

Can he live with the onboard graphics until the hand me down GPU ?

Can you install windows As keys are cheap ?

I was thinking same as above. You could then add the £150+ to other parts, making it a much vetter rig
