Hi, I'm thinking about buying a PC for gaming in a month or two. My budget is about £1,000. This is my first one, though, so I had a few questions about it.
1. I've read that monitors are much better than TVs, but wondered if LED TVs were better? I have a 22" Samsung LED TV (I don't know the exact model, sorry) and hoped to be able to save some money by just using this - do you think it would be alright or am I better off buying a proper monitor?
2. I'd planned on using a GTX 660Ti and wondered what peoples opinions on this card were? I want a PC that can play current games on the highest settings and will last for a few years before needing an upgrade.
3. In PCS' selection of cases, is there much critical difference (beyond cosmetic) when going in the £65+ range?
4. If I'm not buying for a couple of months, is there anything new coming out that I should hold on for before making my mind up about a build?
Thanks for any advice!
