My budget is £1900 and this build is over that but I had a code that luckily gave me £15 off.
The use of the PC is Gaming. ALOT of gaming.

I bought two monitors with the build which added about £250 extra. Sadly, because this build is quite expensive I couldn't get monitors that bring out the full potential of the desktop. I ordered two ASUS VN248HA 23.8" IPS LED DISPLAY monitors.

EDIT: The build is still in processing so changes can be made.

I would suggest a completely different system that will unfortunately mean cancelling your existing order and re-ordering. The Azure in the review section is £1500 and offers a better system for less (discounted price if no changes are made). That will give you enough money to get a decent 4k monitor.
