Desktop and Monitor for £1.5k - Best set up for a gaming rig! Please Help!
Hi,
Im looking for a new desktop and monitor with a max budget of £1.5k to replace my ageing laptop. I already have a wireless keyboard and mouse, but need a decent monitor. I want to get my hands on it by next weekend (ideally) but could wait another week or so...and save myself a few more £.
Any suggestions on tweaking the below to get the most bang for my buck? I based the build on the Witcher3 Elite PC recommendation, but added a bigger SSD drive.
Thanks in advance for your advice!
