My budget was £1300 but then etherium prices surged lol so I'm already stretching hard. Not sure what monitor I'll get yet but I'm not looking for crazy FPS, 60 is fine and 100 is great. I'll be using it for uni work too but none of that is particularly intensive compared to gaming. I know...

I think my current config gives me upgradability to something like a Ryzen 7 5800x if I wanted to upgrade in a few years. The 5600x is good but I don't think 6 core architecture is that future-proof tbh especially with the new consoles having 8 cores and 16 threads and I don't think it would be...

Why such a high end motherboard? A B550 seems fine and would support a 5000 series CPU if I wanted to upgrade. Also is it really worth the extra money for a gold PSU? I'm fine with bronze rated efficiency and the CV-650 seems like a common choice in mid-range builds.

Budget was meant to be £1250 so I'm already stretching it. I plan on getting a 1440p 144Hz monitor and want to play the latest games like Watch Dogs Legion and Cyberpunk 2077 at high/ultra settings.

So I'm very torn between two PC configurations and I was wondering if I could get your opinions on which is the stronger of the two. My budget is £1300 and I've got two options that are basically at that budget. Option 1: Intel Core i5-10600k RTX 3060 Ti Noctua NH-U14S (to allow for...
