New PC Build £2k

[lynchy6789]

Hello,

I am very much out of the hardware game and it is has been over 10 years since I last built a PC, so very out of touch with everything.

Looking to get back into gaming, specifically BF 2042. I have a build budget of £1.7k - £2.2k, which will need to also include a screen, mouse and keyboard (no windows required). I think I want to go for a prebuilt system by Overclockers rather than build my own.

Some criteria:

- I want to achieve the best balance of price Vs performance. For example, I am happy to stretch to £2.2k but if the performance gain isn't really there I would rather save the £££s.

- I am not all that concerned about achieving the max settings, but would equally like to future proof the build

- monitor will be used heavily for work so I am looking at the LG 32GP850, but if it is worth upgrading to 4k or another screen then I am happy to consider.

- smaller the case the better as I a little short on space in the room.

I have just started reading up on the latest hardware but wanted to get a post out there as I know the OcUK are a lot more knowledgeable than me and have always helped.

Thanks

Thank you for taking the time to reply. It has certainly given me something to consider and start with.

It is a little scary how much graphics cards now are (clearly been living under a rock), so trying to get a 4k setup was a little naive of me, nor is it something I am overly fussed about. I am looking to get back into gaming for the social side of things with friends so I probably need to let me budget reflect this and not get carried away.
