[UK] Gaming PC Build - £1,000 Budget

[TangoSheep]

Hi,

 

I'm in need of some advice in building a PC for a friend, I'm happy to build it for him as I have experience doing so however I'm not up to date with all the latest hardware - I'd appreciate it if someone can drop a part list for what he requires.

 

 

Budget (including currency): £1,000 (GBP)

Country: United Kingdom

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: World of Warcraft, Various Total War games, Call of Duty.

Other details: He already has a setup currently, however it is getting extremely dated (i7 2600K & R9 390) and needs an upgrade.

Currently playing at 1080p, no need for a new monitor as he is happy with the one he has.

 

Any and all ideas appreciated!

 

Thanks,

TangoSheep
