Problem is, I can only do monthly payments, so I'm doing a Pay in Part deal with Currys, so it has to be a computer already made up of components from the store.

Ew. So much wrong in this thread. I don't even know where to start.

Okay, livestreaming. Your internet speeds make a large difference to how well you can stream. Of course, a good PC helps, but you'd need to have a decent connection first. With wireless, you won't get this. You would be looking to use a wired connection. I wouldn't recommend using wireless for anything other than a mobile phone or laptop anyway. If your router/modem is not near you, you could always buy a long ethernet cable and either run it through your ceiling or floors and use a switch in your room. Or, you get those plug thingys that plug in near your router/modem and then into a socket in your room. I can't remember what they're called so we'll stick with "plug thingys", at least for now.

Next, paying monthly for a PC is an absolutely horrible idea. Don't do it. Just don't. Buying a pre-built is also a horrible idea, especially from Currys. Save money and build a decent PC, then upgrade it as you need to. Pre-builts almost always come with bad quality, low end components and if you buy from Currys, this is guaranteed.

No such CPU as "4870k". You either mean 4820k or 4770k I think. Either way, ew. 4790k>4770k. Basically the same CPU but the 4790k is slightly better, slightly newer and has better temperatures. The 4770k and 4790k are around the same price anyway. As for the 4820k, it's older now and the 5820k is out which is better. The 4820k hasn't dropped much in price as far as I'm aware and the 5820k shouldn't be much more expensive. However, both the 4820k and 5820k are enthusiast grade CPU's and 100% do NOT belong in a pre-built PoS. 16GB RAM isn't really necessary. GTX 780Ti is older now, and the GTX 9** series have been released, you should be looking at either GTX 970 or GTX 980.

With £2k, you could build a very good PC and even install a custom loop, although you're considering a pre-built so custom loop probably wouldn't be a wise decision for you.


TL;DR- Build your own. Currys is poo. Pre-builts are shit.

definitely go for one with a good amount of ddr3 RAM and a good processor. this is so far the best one i found on the website you provided.
