****PC Build Request Form****

Budget & Currency: 500 GBP

Peripherals & Monitor: Monitor and Keyboard are needed the most

Games: I would be using said computer for games pretty much every time I go on it. Mainly looking to be able to play gta v at a fps of at least 60 or more

Software: Sony Vegas and Photoshop would be used at the most

Aesthetics: A PC with a side panel would be nice to have. As for the colour case, white or black is an option. Definitely white if it can come with LEDS because who doesn't like rainbows.

Details: I would like to have a Nvidia Graphics card as shadowplay is a must for me.

When: Most likely by the end of the week

Thanks <3

Best bet is to grab yourself a used GTX 770 or GTX 960 for £60-75. GTX 770 is a little better than the 960. GTX 680 and GTX 770 are the same card so if you find a GTX 680, that would do as well. It'll be a little over £500 and you'll need to buy a cheap kb(or kb/mouse combo) but if you want it under £500, you'll have to go with an APU.

If you do want to do that, swap the R3 1200 for this;

The integrated graphics will perform similarly to a GTX 750Ti

Lastly, here is a couple of alternative cases;

The Q300L has an acrylic window, but better airflow than the Masterbox case I included in the parts list above. The P300S is better quality than both the CM cases and definitely worth the extra tenner if you can spare it, but the CM cases are both pretty great for the price. You could easily get something cheaper, like a Bitfenix Nova for £20-30 but it's cheaper for a reason.



If you buy the R3 2200G APU, make sure that you ask eBuyer(or wherever you buy the motherboard from) to update the motherboard's BIOS for you, so that it is compatible with Ryzen 2000.
