Guess monitor can always be added later

Sweet... Just make sure you land 16GB of ram .. if I can find screen shots have CSlines using 12GB easily

Side track.. have you tried.. They Are Billions ?

Tamz, no Intel build ? ;(

 

[Spankme]

nah. got a standard build for that... ryzen 1400+1050ti+8gb ram. rest is fluff

Naaaa 1060 with a 1600.. perfect for 1080

in the kindest of ways, please do.
it'll won't be the most pleasant breaking hundreds of pounds worth of electrical equipment by installing it the wrong way.

also, you'll need to budget for an operating system as these computers won't come with windows.
this will cost approx £80ish (don't buy from OCUk - it's too expensive)

it is, but if monitor is needed with windows, then not enough budget for those.

Yeah i accidently spent out £700 on a prebuilt PC and its already failed me after a year so i def dont want to make the same mistake none of the parts can be replaced

 

[tamzzy]

build the PC for future use as well

so i can replace parts in the future if need be

hmmm...dead end platform...
unless it's z370, but i fear the budget won't stretch that far...

Should last 4/5 years . Not as strong as others . Pros and cons to Intel Vs AMD . And then DDR5 / PCIe 4.0 knocks most systems from being future proof for a long while

True, but still have to throw off the stigma of old i3 being 2c/4t unit. Considering its £100 cheaper the .6400/6600k/7400/7600k it's not to bad , and seems i5 gen 1-7 Are a massive percentage on steam hardware survey , not to bad

Do feel sorry for i3 coffeelake .. though feel sorry for who bought i5 skylake.. hahah
