Your friend can claim two free games from the link below. There is also a game called Everspace included as well.

The RX 580 also comes with Quake Champions.

He might need to buy a Display port cable, depending on what comes with the Monitor to get the 144Hz refresh rate.

• Ryzen benefits greatly from fast RAM with low CL latency - this RAM is exactly that.
• Solid PSU, 5 year warranty highly efficient and from a respected brand
• Fairly new monitor. Decent colour accuracy for a TN monitor, comes with backlight strobing and FreeSync (so pairs with RX 580).
• RX 580 with a good cooler, decent warranty.
• Very good case for the price. Comes with 2 decent fans pre-installed and is sound-dampened.

Also, I would wait on the CPU, motherboard etc until Monday:

Remember the big one is coming Monday, shall be live at 8am, just to give you a little heads up of what to expect, lets just say:

• 1950X at £729.99
• 1800X under £300
• VEGA 56 reduced
• VEGA 64 reduced
• RX 580 reduced
• Motherboards reduced
• Coolers reduced
• More memory kits reduced
