    Hi everyone, I'm finally looking to buy a gaming pc and I was hoping for some advice because this is my first build. The PC will be used for gaming and low intensity university work so I'm hoping this will be powerful enough? The build comes to £709 which is within budget but I'm trying to keep...

    Okay I understand what you've done with the spec you've posted now then, much appreciated! Looking around online the 2070 super is looking really expensive at the moment so I don't think I'd be going for it any time soon - are the new ones coming out in September likely to be cheaper/because...

    Thanks for the tips! So with the RAM vs GPU - if I get a more powerful RAM can that counteract some of the effects of the lower GPU? Because you're right in only looking for a 1080p monitor for now due to budget reasons. Also would that combination likely be okay for vr one day or would I...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST First time designing a PC - I've got a couple of questions

    Okay sure! My current build is £846, which was higher than I was hoping for but still manageable. I don't want to go much higher than that because I also need to buy peripherals and that sort of thing but maybe £900 on the actual PC unit would be my maximum. I haven't even looked at monitors...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST First time designing a PC - I've got a couple of questions

    Hey! Like the title says, I'm pretty new to creating a PC so I just wanted to check a few things. 1) I'm hoping to use the 'Asus ROG Strix B450-F' motherboard in my build, and according to other sites apparently doesn't come with WiFi built in. Does this mean that I need to get one of the...
