I am looking to purchase a basic gaming PC for my son. Ideally want something around £800. See the attached configuration. I would welcome any advice either to raise or lower the spec of any components.

Sorry I am new to this and didn't know how to post a quote https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/saved-configurations/amd-am4-home-office/GrjSp!exsD/ Still not sure if this will work. My son already has a gaming keyboard, 144hz display and gaming mouse.

You won't get anything worthwhile at that budget I'm afraid, not in a custom pc, you may want to check out second hand or consoles.

You'd be looking around £1200 fora basic custom pc.

Anything under £1000 is a console IMO. I would argue that anything under £1500, for gaming, should be a console but a PC has far more versatility so can always compromise with the gaming performance to get that.
