around £600 budget gaming build

[Entrity]

Hi Guys,

My friend is looking to build his first gaming PC with a budget of around £600.

Ideally with the ability for future upgrade.

He already has monitor, keyboard and mouse so will need everything else.

Could you spec a nice build please?

Hi Stulid,

Looks good, he is very happy with the spec.

Would you be able to recommend case fans to go with the build? and if he will need extra cables with them?

Thanks

It needs that one fan and cable, the PSU will have its fan facing down exhausting air - https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18735568&highlight=startername_stulid
