Hi,

Unique configurable URL: https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/saved-configurations/amd-am4-gen3-pc/ZVbnjAw!rf/

Hard max budget £2000
Ideal budget, around where it is £1650

Monitor: taking recommendations

I’m not very good when it comes to building pcs. My friend helped me with this and I like the look of what we found.

I don’t really play triple A games but may do down the line. I hoping this spec will be good for the next 5+ years. I play online games and would like them to run at max graphics if possible, along with minecraft rtx.

Any feedback? Thanks.

Hi,
Welcome!

A few questions so we can help you better:

- Maximum budget? Whilst we may not max the budget, it's useful to know the absolute ceiling

- Monitor? Make and model or resolution and refresh rate. The monitor dictates the graphics card so you don't over-spend for no reason..for example, getting the 3070 would be wasting money if your monitor is 1080p 60Hz

Could you also please go back to the post to forum page and edit your post to include the Unique Configurable URL from the bottom of said page? Just makes it easier for us so we can edit the spec rather than building one from the ground up. Thanks
Hi, thanks for the heads up. I have now added this information at the top of my post.
