Hi all
My last two PCs (purchases 2010 & 2016) have come from Overclockers and I've always been very pleased. I'm keen to buy a new prebuilt PC, with the primary use being high end gaming and streaming while I play. My budget is £2,500 and needs to cover:
- New prebuilt PC
- New second monitor that will work alongside my existing monitor (AOC G2460PG 24") and new PC
- New gaming mouse (I prefer simpler design like intellimouse but I want something with excellent response time)
I have a slight preference for Intel, Nvidia and Corsair from historic use of products but very happy to be persuaded otherwise.
My last PC was the first time I'd experienced having an SSD, on which load times absolutely blew me away, but it's 250gb and isn't anywhere near enough to store the ~1.2TB of games I have. It leaves me to think I need to have a big SSD but that doesn't seem to come standard in the prebuilt so curious what advice/info i might be able to glean from this forum as to optimal storage. Total storage needs right now are ~3TB of which I satisfy 2TB of this on external USB harddrives at the moment. I've no idea what storage needs might look like over the next 5 years?
Also happy to take advice over alternative options for monitor usage, I previously had a second old 19" LCD connected but it's finally died.
Really appreciate any thoughts or comments.
