Good Evening all.

So, basically I'm looking at buying a decent Gaming PC for around £400/500 and I've been looking at some online and wondered which was best. I'm not a hardcore gamer but would like to hopefully play games at 1080p with decent frame rate and decent settings.

Appreciate all the help you can offer me.

Cheers Josh!

Would be worth getting something like this. Defiantly if you aren't confident with PC troubleshooting or can't dedicate time to it as usually something won't be right when building a PC and configuring. WHich will require time to fix.

The warranty would help this and it is pre-built.
