New Gaming PC ~ £1200 Budget

[Charl1e310]

Hello all,

I'm looking to build my first gaming PC, but have no idea where to start. I have a keyboard and mouse but that's about it. Preferably I would like 2 monitors but this is not necessary.
Looking to play games such as: GTA, Fortnite, Rocket League and The Forest without resorting to minimal settings.

I have a budget of around £1200
Thanks for any help!

1440p 60-75 FPS gaming on 75hz Freesync monitor

Thanks for the suggestion, I assume I would need to purchase Windows OS as well?

There are ways for a lot cheaper ! Buying a CD key for £20 odd and downloading windows 10 via media creation tool .

Could also go 1080p 144hz monitor if you want more fast pace gaming the .higher Resolution gaming.

They are about £200 for 144hz VA Freesync panel

Thanks again, I was also wondering if you could tell me the difference in performance between these two graphics cards:

- https://www.overclockers.co.uk/powe...ddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-18l-pc.html

and whether there would be a noticeable difference in gameplay
