Hey guys. I came here for help when i built my first rig and was hoping to get some more help now. My friend is looking to purchase a gaming rig. His budget is £600. He needs everything including a monitor. The only thing he has is OS. Can someone spec a rig withing his budget please.

I hope you dont need a keyboard and mouse also?

Thanks stulid. He can sort his mouse and keyboard out.

Would it be possible for you to also do a spec for a build with a budget of £800. Just so he can compare the difference. He is willing to pay more if its worth the difference. Thanks again stulid.

I changed the spec in my first post as I left something out.

greatjakira · 12 Aug 2011 at 17:44

Thanks you very much. Appreciate that.

Buchanan0204 · 12 Aug 2011 at 17:46

The second one is definitely worth the extra 200 quid IMO.

Walkerie · 12 Aug 2011 at 17:49

Stulids build is worth taking a look at.
