Power supply?

Don't just settle on the first one you find.

You need to be looking for something like the following:

Intel 2700k/3570k/3770k (even non-K models will be fine)
Intel 4xxx series
AMD 2600
Minimum RAM 8gb
Motherboard doens't matter at this point
GPU will depend on the make/model but you can always replace it - post it anyway

power supply is the most important part

hai, im favouritefootball, i had to make a new account since i reached my max number of posts lol, also i wanted to ask if i can just ask the person if the psu is included or should i still continue searching for a pc that matches with specs that you have given me?

There is no max posts...unless this is something new...always check if the PSU is included (it should be most of the time) but decent units are cheap anyway. You might find it needs replacing as its a 10yr old POS that'd probably blow up given the opportunity lol

I'm assuming it's to stop someone spamming the forums? I'll have to double check.

It wasn't something that was present when I joined so I don't really know but I suppose that's a good point, it has happened before.

I am not sure if favouritefootball is actually genuine or not tbh, as I read his comments, I got them in a Keith Lemon voice and picture him laughing away in the background.
I could be wrong though, but he was asking for a lot

I have my doubts as well but if he was genuine i would recommend he gets an Xbox.

Agreed that budget is too small for a PC.
