Gaming PC Build

[Wilko_Dog]

Hi all,

Building a PC for my nephew for Christmas, my brother said his budget is around a grand for the tower, monitor and mouse & keyboard.

Would anyone be able to post some spec options from OCUK in here please. Any help / advice is much appreciated.

Edit: I may have put this in the wrong thread, if so could an admin please move?

Here's a starting point for 1440p gaming but slightly over budget, windows keys can be picked up cheap. Can reduce price by dropping custom cooler as the CPU comes with one, etc.
