Hi, guys, I've been planning my first build for a while and am at the point of nearly ordering my parts. I'm new to the pc building world so it would just ease my mind if I had some comments on my choice of parts from more experienced people than myself! The build is focused on getting good performance on new games and particularly flight simulator. (Xplane11 etc).
My budget is loosely around the 1500 pound mark but my build is coming around JUST under which is great!
Here are my parts:
Please let me know honest opinions about this build.
Thanks for your time peeps
