I already have a 2 builds below, just looking for any critique.
A friend is looking to make the move from console gaming on his PS4 and wants me to spec up a PC for around £560. Just the tower, already has a screen, KB and mouse.
Looking for something to run most games including Fallout 4 and Ark Survival in 60fps, 1080p on at least medium settings.
Will be trying to purchase all parts from the same store, either Amazon UK or Overclockers UK.
