Hi,

All you guys seem rather smart, so I hope you can help me out! I have a budget of £1,500-£2,000 for a setup which will allow me to play games at good speed and quality, and I can also stream from.

I have absolutely no idea about any of it, from makes and models to what's good or not, but for my budget I want the highest quality equipment.

From the information I understand, I want 3 monitors - one to support live streaming, one to play PC games on and one to play my Xbox on. I have a fairly wide desk space to have the monitors on, and a large amount of space below the desk for my console etc.

I have 0 equipment right know, so what should I buy for;
Keyboard
Mouse
Monitors
Graphics Card
Hard drive
(And anything else that's needed which I haven't listed.)

I hope someone can help me, as I am so lost with it all!
Thanks very much

Grab a couple of cheap 1080p monitors for the sides, about £100 a piece is enough. Not sure what key switch preference you have if any, but just look for a Corsair Strafe/K70 or HyperX Alloy FPS/Elite with the switch type you'd prefer.

Also, the Phanteks Eclipse P600S releases in like a week, probably going to be more expensive than the Enthoo Pro but I'd maybe keep an eye out for the P600S.
