Budget (including currency): £800-£1000

Country: UK, ENGLAND

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming (World of warcraft + GTA V / VI)

Other details: no peripherals required, just the desktop. No plan to go over 60hz monitor just need a casual gaming pc to handle current + new games

 

If all you need is 60fps (at 1080p?) then you could get something like this for even less than your budget https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/XdTxKp

That build should be able to hit tripple digit FPS at 1080p high settings in just about any game so it should have no problem running any new releases at above 60fps for a few years to come.

for a 1k pounds he could fit a 1440p 144 hz monitor and a 6600xt

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

Very true. I got the impression that the OP would preffer to save some money rather than spend 100% of the budget for the absolute best performance but if they do want to go down the route of buying a better monitor then a 1440p IPS monitor + 6650xt (cheaper than 6600xt right now) would be slightly out of their budget (probably something like this https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/JtGYC6 )

or a 6650xt + 1080p (or possibly 1080p ultrawide) 165hz IPS does fit into the budget without needing a CPU downgrade. https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/8ggy2m

thanks for the help, this list looks perfect as I was looking at some of these parts already 🙂
