Hello all, I am new to this forum. I don't understand gaming PC's either. I have a budget of £400 and I need a gaming PC. No peripherals needed.

I just want to run Cities: Skylines and FM 2018

Thank you
 
My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £479.19 (includes shipping: £12.30)​

you could ask ocuk to build it for you for a small fee, and ask if they would warranty the whole build, rather than individual part warranty, if you're not comfortable building it yourself.
unfortunately for the spec above, a couple parts are currently out of stock

Can I find alternatives for the products that are out of stock?
 
@HXSVN the ryzen 1200 is very common, i'd be surprised if if won't be back in stock soon.
about the msi 1050ti, then i'm not too sure - if it won't come back into stock, there are other alternatives, albeit slightly dearer.
regardless, you could post in the customer services section and enquire, and one of the cs guys will get back to you
 
I could run skylines, sim city 2013, Anno 2205 on a 1gb gtx 750 on high settings at 1080p over 50/60fps, so you should be fine with a normal 1050 given it’s much better than the now old 750.
 
Skylines will start to eat up when your playing mods or unlocking most of the game tiles and hitting asset limit . That's both CPU and GPU bound.
But by the time you reach that stage I often restart haha .
That game can easily use over 16gb but again down to mods mainly

football manager... SSD!!!!!!
 
I've looked through some benchmark results for the processors and Intel i3 8100 seems to be better than the AMD Ryzen 3 1200. Which one would you guys recommend?
 
If you were to spec me the cheapest possible Intel-based system to fit in a Corsair CC-9011106-WW Carbide Series 270R case, what would it look like?
