$1100/£655 gaming PC help

[Connor Wood]

Hi guys,

I've had a few ideas on a build for this price range but I'd rather get the opinions of smarter people haha.

I'm after good graphics, as this is for a gaming pc.

Any help is appreciated

Well this one doesn't have OS and the extras, if you need just the pc something like this might be good for you.
Also if you want an OC:able CPU you can get one for a little bit more money.

So generally, do you need Monitor, keyboard, mouse, OS then it needs to be revised.
Otherwise it should be a good PC.

OP, do you need a monitor, any gaming peripherals, or an OS?
