Hi my friend is looking to buy a desktop PC as his laptop has packed in.

He's looking for a desktop build mainly for his stream (streams console games using an elgato) but would also like to be able to play PC games with high settings + FPS at 1080p

extra info

1. His budget is £1.1k
2. All the parts must be come from ONE of these sites
a) https://www.scan.co.uk/
or
b) https://www.cclonline.com/
Reason being is that they can build the PC for him and it also makes warranty/repairs easier

3) He already has windows 10

Thanks for the help :)

Building a PC is easy task and profitable. Because both of the above sites has high prices for components and some components are not even available. If he goes for either of those sites he has go lot over budget or compromise on performance. If he builds himself he can get better performing build with good quality in his budget.

Building PC is a easy task to do. Not as hard as many think.

I wouldn't recommend MSI motherboard as MSI is still facing some QC issues which it did not even care to solve in years. They only have MSI boards.

I don't think they will provide warranty and repair service for more than a year unless he pays lot extra for it. Not at all recommended it is waste of money.
