Recently got my self a summer job and will be using wages to pay for my pc after using my laptop to play games for the last year

 

My budget is £500-£600 I will only be using one monitor and I will need a keyboard and mouse. this PC will be used mainly for playing games such as CS:GO, CIV V/VI and some other less powerful grand strategy games. I would enjoy any recommendations you guys have

 

Many Thanks

I would suggest getting a 500GB HDD and then getting an SSD as a boot drive, maybe 128gb or what ever fits your budget

- SSUPD Meshlicous - Z170I - i7-6700K - Gigabyte 2080 - 16GB Corsair Vengance - 850 EVO 1TB - H115i ICUE Link- SF600
