Building my brother-in-law's computer earlier in the year has given me the upgrade itch, so now I'm looking to build a new machine for my own gaming setup at the end of November.
My budget is somewhere in the region of around £2000-2300... probably nearer the lower end of that.
At the moment, I play most of my games on a 3440x1440 screen so would be aiming to build a machine that can run most current games at a relatively stable 50-60 fps on that.
I have all the peripherals and I'm fairly certain that I have a new & unused 1000W Silverstone PSU somewhere about the house. I'll try dig out the exact model tonight so the more experienced builders on here can recommend whether to use it or buy something better.
Budget: £2000 - £2300
Already Got:
