Budget is £1100 and £1200, I would mainly be doing a lot of gaming on the machine. I am obv located in the UK hence the currency '£'. Does not include a monitor, keyboard or mouse. I would be playing games on a 1080p 144hz monitor which I will get after the build though. Also a rig that has rgb lights or led lights.

wow... information

 

tbh its self explanatory, but yh my budget is £1200 and less, I would only be doing gaming on the computer with a 1080p 144hz monitor. Doesnt include a headset, monitor, keyboard or mouse. So the budget is purely for the PC only.

Wow. That went right over your head..

 

 

Maybe if you provided your screen resolution, refresh rate, whether you have a monitor or need one, keyboard? mouse?

Is a rtx 2060 worth it? I heard the 2070 is only 10% to 15% better than the 2060.

2070 is about 1080, 2060 is around1070-1070 ti level. you're fine with a 2060, but I just managed to get a 2070 in the budget

 

a second hand 1080 ti is also a option

I would go for the 2060 tbh, spending an extra £150 for 10% higher performance dont seem logical to me.
