Hi Guys,

Back again for some wisdom from the OCUK community!

Ok so my other nephew (the last guy I was posting about's brother).. Got one of those cheap ****** builds off ebay a long time ago for whatever reason.

The old pc is basically on its last legs and dead tbh! Can any of you guys spec me just a tower build for around the £550-600 mark? I would prefer an SSD or M2 SSD to be used even if its small as can use his old drive as a Storage drive.

He mainly plays games such as CS:GO, H1Z1, Player Unknown Battlegrounds and DayZ just games like this really so yeah any suggestions you guys could make would be much appreciated, operating system, mouse, keyboard, monitors everything else is already there, so I just need the parts and a tower to house it all in and I can build it myself!

Thanks in advance guys appreciate it!
 
bar the hard drive is there anything else he can re use? case, GPU or power pack? or is it all garbage?
does he need an operating system?
 
sorry mate forgot to mention hes got a windows 10 64bit legit copy already so thats all good, and nah mate its all garbage, AMD, DDR2 RAM just a crap all round system really so get to speccing if anybody can for me please haha! :)
 
the one I built for my nephews brother who's birthday was a few months earlier in the year was this.. but he had a - GeForce GTX 1050 Mini 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card that he'd bought while waiting for a new system to prolong his last ones lifespan.

Heres the specs for the system I built him anyway although obviously his budget was only £450-480 I've added an extra £120 to the budget for the fact my nephew will need a GFX card too!

-Super Flower Platinum King 450W 80 Plus Platinum Power Supply - Black
-Intel Core i5-7500 3.40GHz (Kaby Lake) Socket LGA1151 Processor - Retail
-GeForce GTX 1050 Mini 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
-Asus Prime B250M-A Intel B250 (Socket 1151) DDR4 Micro ATX Motherboard
-Intel 600P 256GB M.2-2280 PCI-e 3.0 x 4 NVMe 3D NAND Solid State Drive (SSDPEKKW256G7X1)
-Team Group Elite 8GB (2x4GB) DDR4 PC4-19200C16 2400MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black (TPKD48GM2400HC16DC0
-Bitfenix Nova Midi Tower Case - Black
--BitFenix Spectre 120mm Fan - Plain Black x 2

Hey Gib read my above post.. plus I've added a new post in the pre sales queries questions part of the question as I've pieced the parts I think I want together please could you go take a look for me? :)
 
Sorry I missed that bit of your post matey, I've had a look at your post in the pre-sales section as well and for the games your nephew is going to be playing this would do just fine :)
