PC build (this any good)

Posted 28th Mar 2023

I've been in contact with pcspecialists and they priced this up for me

I'm not very knowledgeable on all of this and I'm after getting a good gaming tower pc for my teenage boys to play games on

Is this a good deal or could I get better for my money?

So is everything similar in the link you provided but I'm getting an upgrade in the SSD and at the same time saving money on the pcspecialists build?

Take off the Windows install to save £90, get a £10 key from Ebay

*edit*

Use the money saved to upgrade the ram to 16gb 3200mhx, the GPU to a 3060ti and the PSU to 650w (edited)

Great idea
You mean through the awd-it.co.uk link the previous person recommended or through the pcspecialists build because I can't see which one is charging the £90 for windows (edited)

Dunno if it still works but code TRMZ might knock 30 quid off.

if youre not planning on paying using credit then you could probably get loads better off facebook marketplace locally.. a pc with those specs would be half that price easy. obviously not new. but i dont think ive bought a new pc in 20 years. lol.

either way, as others said. get a windows key online. theres places that sell them for £3

Thanks. What do I type in on eBay for the windows key because I can't seem to find them. I type windows 11 key but I'm not seeing any for the prices mentioned

only had a quick look but that one is £849 including windows 11.. only 9 quid more than the pcspecialists one without windows...

or going back up to around your original price this one is £999. better graphics card...
