Hey guys,
I am hoping to build a new computer around Christmas time, and i was wondering if I could get some more opinions on what I’ve chosen. My budget is around £1000 which includes a monitor. If you think there is anything better available than what I’ve listed, please feel free to post them, as I haven’t actually bought anything yet. Bear in mind that it will mostly be used for gaming and work.
