Ok, so within the next month or two I plan on buying my 1st gaming pc. Now before I do that, I have a few questions.

Will I still be able to play my digital xbox games on my pc through my xbox live account or will I need to re-buy them and play on steam? (Overwatch/R6/PUBG)

Do I let the company overclock my cards or is it best if I do it?

Should I buy my processor locked or unlocked?

This is the pc I'm looking at right now btw (level 1):

You will have to rebuy those games.

Build a PC instead of buying a pre-built.

It's not all about overclocking, most GPU's come factory overclocked (higher than reference cards). Stock speeds will be fine.

When the time comes, read through this post Forums/t=6751631/pc-building-rule...dvice.html then post here Forums/f=334/pc-building-forum.html

I'm all for building a pc. It would be way cheaper but, the way gpu prices are now it's best to buy prebuilt imo

NVIDIA UK website seem to be re stocking more frequently now so keep a look out I got a 1070 TI Founders edition of their website for 420 pounds last week they were also selling 1070s for 379,

You can play a very small amount of games that are on the Xbox one. (You can see it by looking at the platform in the Xbox store) But you will have to re-buy games
It really depends on what you fill like doing, I would just get a overclocked GPU so you don't have to mess with it so you don't break it.

the only games you will be able to play on your PC that you have on your Xbox are Microsoft titles. R6 and Overwatch have their own clients with Uplay and Blizzard.net respectively.
