Hello,

I got my pc for £310 and these are the specs

I5 3440s

GTX1050ti

8gb of ram

Samsung 830 ssd

500gb hdd

CIT 300watt sfx PSU

 

What do you think would be the best upgrade, and any recommendations for a cheap monitor and keyboard.

 

Is £310 with a 2 year warranty a good deal.

I think the price is decent. No recommendations on monitor or keyboard, just buy the cheapest ones new (or used if that's your bag)

As far as an upgrade... PSU first, then RAM, then GPU. Storage as needed of course. Should be a fairly capable rig as is.

The specs is pretty decent and would have no problems running games at mid-high settings in 1080p.
