Looking to purchase a prebuilt gaming system from here. Changed the config slightly on this overclocked one. Will be used to mainly play WoW and possible some new releases in the future.

Just wondering if I could get anything better for a similar price on any of the other prebuilt systems, also any 24" monitor recommendations to go with it?

drop to a 1070ti and save 60 quid, but 1080 is still better regardless.



edit: i realized for the intel build i added a 2nd ssd by mistake lol so im removed that and dropped the storage drive back to a 1tb and updated it.
