It’d help us to know a couple of things, please. What’s your max budget for the build, what monitor are you pairing with it and any other uses than gaming such as streaming, editing etc?

My monitor is AOC 27G2U/BK 27" Widescreen IPS LED Black Multimedia Monitor (1920x1080/5ms/VGA/DP/HDMI/USB 3.0 x 4)

It will focused on gaming, this pc has cost me, 1400 without added tax, and I'm willing to spend more for the 3070 but will it run a 3070 card?, I can currently make amends to my pc at this stage so any info would be great thanks!

The monitor will be the bottleneck on that, for a 1080p screen a 3070 will be no use to you.

I’d advise reconsidering the whole build, you’ll be better off with an AMD spec for your uses.

You should be fine, as a consumer you have the right to cancel. You’ll just have to go through another credit check when you do a new finance agreement. Let us know how you get on with things and we’ll be happy to help you get a system that’s optimised for you 🙂
