Hi Guys,

Not been active within the PC community for literally years due to family and work etc.
So i am really out of touch with current components and was wondering if i could possibly have some help please!

Not wanting to spend a fortune but would like something half decent.

What i can salvage off my current PC -

Case
HDD
Optical Drives

I have 8GB of DDR3 1600mhz but im guessing that may be outdated now?

I dont need an OS or any peripherals.
Any suggestions would be fantastic! Thanks in advance

Okay i decide the budget which would be around £1000-1200 for the tower.

Thanks mate, would be looking to spend less than that. Apologies i should have said a rough amount. Lets say 4-500 quid.

Thanks for that, i sort of chucked a list together using common sense, will the PSU be enough for the GPU?

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x MSI A320M Pro-VD Plus AMD A320 (Socket AM4) DDR4 Micro-ATX Motherboard= £43.99
1 x AMD Ryzen 3 Quad Core 1200 3.40GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail= £98.99
1 x Team Group Dark T-Force 8GB (2x4GB) DDR4 PC4-24000C16 3000MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black/Grey (TDGED48= £98.99
1 x Palit GeForce GTX 1060 Dual 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card= £179.99
1 x EVGA 450BT 450W 80 Plus Bronze Power Supply= £37.99

Total: £471.05 (includes shipping: £11.10)

Thanks a lot, may look into getting a new GPU and PSU then first then go from there.
