New build for £900

Lovejoy! · 16 Jun 2019 at 14:32

Hi all,

Girlfriend is looking to move into PC gaming and has set aside a budget of £900 for a self-build project.

She only needs the PC, no monitor or peripherals, and doesn't need a copy of Windows so it's parts only!

Please recommend me the best bang for buck and i'll happily pass it on to her

Cheers

Cheers guys! Looks like there's a good chance for a nice system out of that cash.

Will the new AMD stuff knock down the cost of the current stuff? Or is it really not that worth waiting?

I wonder whether OCUK will adapt the bundle...

KEEP THOSE BUILDS COMIN' pls

ah that's great news, cheers for that!

i reckon we'll wait and pick up the 3000 series then.

with the 3000s out, what am i swapping in for the 2600x? a 3600x?

Lovejoy! · 10 Jul 2019 at 14:20

just the 3600 or the X?

also, with that mobo out of stock, what would people recommend in it's stead? we're definitely at a point where we'll be ordering in a matter of days i think!

ALSO, does the cpu come with a stock cooler?
