Soldato
Morning all. My lad wants his first PC for Christmas (thinking ahead!). He’s a big Fortnite gamer on the Xbox but has indicated that he wants to get into PC gaming.
So I’m after something:
A) Cheap (I’m not sure what is classed as cheap these days, but hopefully 400-500 isn’t too unrealistic). I’ve got a monitor already.
B) Will play Fortnite and similar games comfortably to similar/better levels than a series S can.
C) Will play most other things at average settings (1080p is fine)
The caveat here is that I can get a salary sacrifice set up and buy something from a competitor which would effectively knock 40% off whatever they can offer. However, I’d rather build myself if possible as I think he would enjoy doing that with me. But open to a pre-built system if it makes sense financially.
Any recommendations appreciated.
