Hello so I built my desktop about 2 years ago for next to nothing from parts I got from friends but as I want to start stuff like twitch streaming I need a more powerful computer.
I currently have an Asrock Z97 anniversary motherboard, Intel Core i5 4570, gigabyte GTX 1050ti, 16gb of ddr3 ram, a 120gb SSD boot drive and 2x 1 TB HDD drives. It works fine for most of the games I'm playing but it's streaming and some editing software I use where it really struggles.
There is a PC in my area for sale for £470 which is an Omen desktop, it has a gforce gtx 1060, core i5 8400, ddr4 SDRAM, doesn't say what motherboard it has.
My question is would this PC be much better than mine by a noticeable difference for things like twitch streaming, as far as I'm lead to believe that processer isn't that great. Would it be worth buying this or what would you do?
Would you build your own from bits, or would you buy a pre-built and what would you buy, I'd like to pay no more than about £700ish
Thanks for any help you can offer, I know a bit about computers but can't really get into the nitty-gritty of it.
