Hi,
I am looking to purchase a new PC which can handle AAA games in 2025 and have longevity for the future. After watching various build videos and starting from a PC specialist base AMD DDR5 build, I configured the following.
This build costs £1700 and I am looking to stay close to this figure. I would be thankful to know this build will meet my requirements above and if there are any concerns with the build.
