Hey. I'm returning to PC gaming after a while and I'm wanting to build something that will last. My old PC has died, seems to be a motherboard failure issue as I've tested the video outputs from the board after unseating the GPU etc, and it's just not displaying anything at all.

That said....the kind of games I'd want to play include Battlefield/Overwatch/Assassin's creed franchise/far Cry etc

My Monitor is a 2550x1440 so thats fine, but some of the games I'll be playing with an XBOX controller on my 49" 4k HDR Samsung

I want something that wont break the bank but will also give me the performance I want for the above requirements, so I was looking at an AMD system with the RX 580 gpu and maybe Ryzen 7 2700x?


ALREADY HAVE:
  • SSDs/HDDs
  • Corsair 2400 DDR3 16GB RAM....but I assume this will be upgraded to DDR4 in this build?

Preferably keep it under £1000



Many thanks. Looking forward to hearing the ideas.

Maybe something like this, not quite a 2700x but still 6c/12t. 16Gb RAM and a 1070ti.
