Edit: Disreguard this, didn't see you needed a monitor my bad. Made a new post.

Bump

Sorry for previous post, but here ya go, the price is a little north of 1300 due to the over priced graphics card but should give you a good baseline.

1080p monitor does not belong in a £1000 system, never mind £1.3k. I've included a nice 4k monitor, but you could go 1440p and save some money if you prefer. Or go with a 2560x1080 ultrawide monitor. Depending on what games he plays and how demanding they are, he could potentially grab a GTX 1060 or something instead of the 1070 to save some money. I haven't included keyboard/mouse, so I'd recommend grabbing a cheap kb/mouse combo for now, something for £20-30.

This doesn't include the price of the motherboard or keyboard, which would put this system £300 over OP's max budget, with a 1080p monitor..

Well it did when I made the list originally... oh well, puts him a little north, but as far as pushing 4k with 8gbs of ram... ok man. Normal mouse/keyboard doesn't belong on a nice system either. Also OP wanted 2TBs.

Here since prices are fluctuating made even another one so 13 can downvote lmao

It's not that it isn't showing price, it's the fact that it's £300 over budget when the motherboard and keyboard price are included.

Watch this. 8GB RAM is fine for 4k, especially with a GTX 1070. 16GB would be better, sure, but 16GB RAM in the UK is upwards of £160. Absolutely not worth it. Much better to get a better GPU and 8GB RAM, then add another 8GB in the future when/if necessary or RAM is priced reasonably.

SHOTTYLEAN wrote Normal mouse/keyboard doesn't belong on a nice system either.

Easiest thing to upgrade in the future. Anyway, he could get a K70 and M65 PRO with a 4k monitor AND GTX 1070, AND 16GB RAM if he was spending £1600, but he's not.

SHOTTYLEAN wrote Also OP wanted 2TBs.

Okay, add £15 to my suggestion for a 2TB HDD instead of 1TB. Or, go with 1TB for now and add another HDD when he has some spare cash.
