Hi all
I've been here nearly 10 years
building systems on and off, been out of it for a few years but need to build a gaming rig for my son's 18th, fast, like order tomorrow!
Got a full size case, optical disk drive and he is using TV for monitor/gaming, that is it. Only £500-£600 to spend. He has a laptop for boring work.
I would like a Gigabyte motherboard, that is really the only stipulation, is this the best I can get please? Don't want to be overclocking now. May try and overclock a bit when I need to squeeze the system later.
