Hi there people,

 

Firstly, apologies if this is duplicating a previous thread of mine, but obviously time has moved on and prices have changed.

 

I am looking to build my first PC and was looking for some help. Some things I need to point out so that you guys can work your magic:

  • I need two monitors
  • I would like a separate video card and CPU
  • I need an OS (Windows)
  • I need to be able to use PayPal credit for the components
  • Budget is around £1000 GBP

 

I know I'm being a bit picky but would like the best possible setup for the £1000 GBP.

 

Thank you all in advance you miracle workers!!!

Have fun! and they have a compatibility feature so you never have to worry if the components will work together or not. 

 

Just switch the currency to yours and boom!

I can obviously put something together but I wouldn't necessarily know if the setup was any good or not.

I'm guessing you're going to buy everything on loan?

Do you want everything to be new, or do you not mind used parts?

Ideally all on loan. New parts would be preferred and I know I'll pay a premium for that but it's just a preference. Sorry to be irritating

Last few questions:

Is gaming all you're planning to do?

Do you want to try your hand at overclocking?

Gaming will be the heaviest I'll do. Other than that it'll be Microsoft Office stuff. And as for trying to OC, I wouldn't mind giving it a go.

Other stuff you need: Grey market W10 Key (£3-5), DVI cable (£5), and maybe 3 120mm fans (I recommend 3 Arctic F12s for £15, good budget fans)

Ofc you won't be able to use Amazon, so prices might be a bit different.

Thanks for this. I assume no could get 2 of the 75hz monitors and it would be great?

Sure you could, I use three of these monitors myself and they're pretty nice.

It's just a waste to have multiple 75hz monitors when only one would actually be used for gaming.

Also I'll add that if you did want to go used, you could get a 980 (which is slightly faster than a 1060 6g) instead for £30 less or a 980Ti (which is 30%+ faster than a 1060 6g) for £50 quid more.

Thank you for all the responses so far! Really helpful. Think I may be buying one of these this evening. No longer using PayPal Credit as now have funds that won't require that at all.

I'd just go for @Herman Mcpootis build. His is really nice, while yours has some flaws in it...

I’ve ordered everything other than the case which is out of stock now. Any ideas for a different case?
