Hi There.

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me I want to go back to a desktop pc as I used to be a laptop user but it can no longer run as well with windows 10 so with Xmas coming I have decided to change I was wondering if anyone should be able to suggest good hardware that not to expensive but still puts a good performance would like it to be a normal pc but a good performer for gaming as well I know it’s asking a lot but any advice I would love to take on board I have looked at the MSI x370 SLi Motherboard and a AMD Ryzen 3.6 for now if anyone can suggest a better one a go for a decent intel cpu be great I have built pcs before but several years back

Thanks Phil

Thanks for letting me know is the Amd Ryzen CPU okay. and motherboard wise that’s for the Ryzen is it best to stick with the msi the board I’m looking at MSI x370 Sli is about £114 so not that don’t mind paying a decent price for a board it just seems to be like an endless shopping list of motherboards
