If you want any help on anything at all, just message me
Is there a way in which you could improve on that possible make it any better? Just trying to get the best possible
Yeah there are always ways to improve it, for example the CPU could go from the I5 range (The middle of the range at the moment) to the I7 Range (the highest) for a lot more performance and multitasking.
The RAM can go up if you wanted it to, but it all depends on the kind of games your going to play. If you play LOL (League of legends) then 8GB is fine, but if your going to be playing an awful lot of BF4 and games like that, then maybe 12 or 16 would be good.
GPU is 2GB but can always change the Make for a slightly better model. The current one is fine, but sometimes certain models and companies are better than one another (Like intel and AMD)
HDD could definitely be improved if you wanted it too, the more the merrier! I would either think about having 1 HDD and a smaller SDD if you wanted, this will enable you to split up your drives from gaming and work and so on.
If your thinking of going pretty much bang on £1000 then you can definitely improve the build a lot more, but if your thinking an extra hundred or two, i would only say to improve the CPU.
Message me if you want me to put together a custom build for you based on this or your likings, and always here if you need any help.
Hello again. Yes it would be incredible helpful if you could come up with another build thats extra £200 or so my budgets pretty flexible and I would just like the best possible but not to much and better than the pre builds other companies offer you. So any improvements would be much appreciated. Thank You!
I've gone away and made some improvements! Here they are:
I improved the CPU from a normal i5 to a i7 k (this just means the CPU is unlocked and you can change it, but that's nothing you'd probably do)
The RAM i doubled from 8GB to 16GB of corsair Vengeance
I added another SSD for extra storage (256GB corsair) and increased the HDD from 1TB of Western Digital to 2GB of Seagate.
These things will improve the actual hardware by quite a lot, but i also have a few things to say about the build.
Seeing how i changed the HDD from 1TB to 2TB you probably dont need the SSD, but it's helpfull to have and always handy for if you want to backup on another harddrive! If you do choose to remove the SSD you will save yourself £138, meaning you can improve the fan and the PSU meaning better cooling (personally i'd put in a water cooling)
For now i'll put the current build, if you want me to remove the SSD or anything else and put better cooling on, please feel free to say! Here is the new build and price:
