Posted April 18, 2017 I know value and prebuilt and gaming dont go together tooooo well but my friend wants to PC game but adamantly refuses a custom pc (by me, himself, custom oems). He has max £900 but preferably less. he plays reasonably cpu demanding games, but needs a powerfullish gpu too. I cant seem to find many good options (other than fx 8300 pcs with 1060 3gbs) Any ideas?
