Hi I'm looking for a high-end level PC for gaming (i.e maxing out the settings of current and future games). I have been messing around with the configure tool and looking at default system builds but I'm not sure what to choose. Intel i7 CPU and Nvidia GPU I'd require as I've always used these companies. My budget is up to £1500.
I have arranged a quote for the MP3 Extreme PC system but it's early days yet and am open to suggestion.
