Hello everyone,
I am looking for feedback regarding the spec below. I haven't built anything in a good few years so am looking for confirmation that the items I have chosen are compatible.
Feel free to throw in your own suggestions on components. For example, I am not sure about the motherboard I have chosen. Is there anything better in that price range? I can go slightly higher if needed.
The PC will be used for gaming ideally at 1080p. However I don't want the machine to be too loud!
Thanks
