spec me a £1200 system

[robwigan]

The 1200 is minus the gpu I have a 2060 I plan to just switch out later for a high end gpu, I'm using a 1440 monitor and the main use is games.

I'm trying to go for an aesthetic type build and looking for some Inspiration, how would you use that budget ?

For reference i like the nzxt 510 elite as a case starting point, however would like to see similar type cases

that's a crap case for the money.

sell the 2060 and put it towards the budget now

guess which of the above you mentioned will make more than a negligible difference to your gaming experience?
yeah. you guessed it.
none of the above.

the 2080 super will though

by all means waste your money on bling-bling. but do so in the knowledge you're not getting value.
(heck the 2080 super isn't great value...but at least it improves the gaming experience)
