Hi there,
I've never posted here before, I'm attempting my first ever home build and would be genuinely appreciative of any tips and thoughts from anyone based on what I've got so far.
I'm heavily restricted in terms of budget so I've cut corners wherever I can hoping to upgrade as I go along.
I took the basis of my build from the Eurogamer build from the summer and have tweaked a few things where I can afford them, I'd love to be able to get some gaming done.
I am a noob so any criticism would be welcomed.
Here's what I'm thinking:
