With this computer I shall have a lot of fun I know but I would like some ideas
I know what I am doing with the computer side of it but I have NO clue on what monitors to buy or keyboard or mouse or even a headset for that matter because I am moving into a office in my house I would like a triple 27 inch monitor setup pointless for me but I kind want to have it for surround gaming

If anyone could comment some monitors that you recommended or keyboards and mouse that would help me out a lot

 

1. Budget & Location
I Live in the uk so for most of the parts i am using Scan.co.uk for all the parts and the budget i just want to buy the best parts or some of the best parts for a alright price

 

2. Aim
Getting High Scores showing off :P

3. Monitors
Hopefully 27 Inch monitors if i can find some good models and at 2560X1440

 

4. Peripherals
Still need a keyboard and mouse kit i quite like rgb Things and windows 8.1 then upgrade to windows 10

5. Why are you upgrading?
Upgrading from 3 Year Old i5 and mini itx board

 

 

Many Thanks

Mark.

RGB I'd go with Corsair.

I'm too cheap to get good monitors so I'll leave those to other people.

 

I'd also suggest other places like Overclockers and Amazon to consider when it comes to what you buy. I tend to find Amazon is cheaper and their 1 month return policy is no hassle.
