Hey all. You were fantastic helping me with my build a few years ago, am now looking to put something together for my son. 99% of his use will be gaming - Overwatch, Minecraft, WoW.. etc.
£1k budget. Have got monitor (1920x1080), keyboard and mouse.
Not quite up to speed but have put this together - any way I can shave a few quid and drop below £1k please? Yeah I know it's only £80 but it's a hard budget. Aesthetics aren't important with the case, I've just picked one that looked decent enough!
Ideally want to stick with the 1070, and gone for the i5 bundle as should be enough for his needs with that clock speed.
My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £1,079.86
(includes shipping: £0.00)
Yours ever grateful.
