Hi,
Not sure if you anyone can help me but I am thinking of buying a new gaming rig. I don't know how to build it myself so would prefer to get one pre-built from overclockers.co.uk as I'd like the warranty and service you get should any problems arise.
Next year I will most likely be buying a house with my gf so this will be my last chance to make such an extravagant purchase without feeling guilty. With that in mind I would like to get the best I can afford with my money and hopefully buy a PC that will is as future-proof as possible and will a) last me a while and b) be upgradeable every now and then should a bit of spare cash appear...
I'd be grateful for any advice people could give me as to what system to buy. When I look at the things available I just see numbers and don't really know what they mean, to me higher numbers are better but from what I understand that is not necessarily the case.
Basic outline I would look for is: an SSD drive (either 32gb or 64gb) to boot from, a large hard drive (1TB), an i5 (or an i7 should my budget allow it), 4-8gb ram, a good gfx card (this is my main sticking point when looking myself as I don't understand the numbers at all!) and all the other relevant things needed to make it run i.e. motherboard, PSU etc. Also I'd like the case to be as unassuming as possible, not interested in flashing lights and such.
My budget is approximately £1000 (give or take £100), I don't require and operating system as that is sorted. The display I will use is a 23inch DELL STE2320.
If anyone could give me some advice on a pre-built system and the options to take I'd be very grateful, if not then not to worry thanks for reading!
