I've been out of the loop with regard to PCs for a few years now, so any advice on whether this is a good spec would be much appreciated. I'll be using it for a bit of everything, but the main focus will be gaming. I'm interested in performance, future-proofing and making sure I have adequate cooling (my current PC has had the side panel off for years and still can't really cope with weather above 25°). There are also a few bits I'll be bringing over from the old PC (peripherals, more RAM, hard drives - the SSD here is mainly for Windows, really). Absolute maximum budget is £1,000, but I'd obviously be happy to save money as well if you think I've gone beyond what's necessary anywhere.
Thanks!
