Currently looking to build my first ever pc. However, I was wondering if I could have some help from more knowledgeable others :)

Primarily use will be for web browsing, youtube videos, on demand, word processing and the occasional game, Rome Total War. Looking for dual monitors as well.

I have made a list using pcpartpicker and wondered if anyone could suggest how good this would be. I already have been given the case and graphics card.

Budget - £250ish :)

Many thanks

Brad

Hi mate,

It is a good starting point although Rome Total War will struggle to run with that low end graphics card. If you coul squeeze £60-100 more into the build it would let you run it on high settings compared to minimum settings.

Hello, thankyou for your comments.

Would the PC be able to manage everything else, browsing, videos, etc? No lagging?

Which graphics card would you suggest?

Many thanks :)
