So I'm planning on saving up and getting this custom pc (Specs bellow) For my budget of £1300 but to make the best possible set up I can for as cheap as I can but I'm aiming to keep that 3060 and the RAM the same as it's now because they have just been something key for me and mostly happy with the CPU I've picked as well as It's an 11th gen intel 11600KF which to me is more then enough but also will work amazing with the 3060.

I Want to know what peoples thoughts are on my build and if i should change anything or look into anything else like an better AMD chip but they are high in price as I'm writing this form aha.

For me there are issues with the following:

Case, CPU, Motherboard, RAM & PSU

What monitor are you pairing the system with?

For me, and I know it's not perfect but, If you want Intel and can't squeeze the budget to go up to 12th gen then look at the 11400f, widely touted as the value to performance king just a few short months ago, and it's cheaper. Try to divert the savings into faster ram and a more powerful PSU.

Other people's experience may differ. 😋

I completely agree with you. They can even try the i5-11400 with RTX 3050/2060 or GTX 1650. They should actually get faster RAM but in their budget of 1300£ I'm not entirely sure if it would work.
