Please help

Hey

Dear overclokers forum

I want to buy a new PC on the overclokers website because of their wide range in parts but I have now idea which parts to choose and how they will play together.

I don't know much about PC parts or anything my budget is £1000/£1050, the only thing I found myself is that the Graphic card I should get is the MSI GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING X 6G Graphics Card - 6 GB and CPU Intel Core i5-7600k 3.8Ghz but I'm also not 100% sure about those, I use WIFI only at home if this matters.

I don't really care how the PC case looks I just want the performance, but few fans will definitely help.

Please help me choose the right PC for me

Thank you

Is it just the base unit required and if so what is the resolution of your monitor?

Also, you will be steered towards a Ryzen build as it's the best bang for buck and has longevity of socket - you may want to start looking at the most 'recent reviews' - not initial release reviews.

Try watching YouTube comparisons between the Ryzen 1600 and i7-7600K...

My resolution is 1920 x 1080 but I would like to buy a sec monitor in future maybe diff resoulation, but for now I will stay with this one even If I buy the new PC, and what do you mean by base unit? I want brand new everything, I heared Intel is better then AMD but I'm not sure about this

Computer parts and builds are like Black Magic for me haha with a lot of numbers, I seen few build on the other sites but there is a lot of different GTX 1060's and I don't know if they are not over priced builds.

and what do you mean by base unit?

The case and all the internal components - no peripherals. I think you've answered the question within your reply.

I heared Intel is better then AMD but I'm not sure about this

That was the case - has been for the past decade - but with the release of Ryzen everything has been turned on its head.

Read some reviews - watch some recent YouTube gaming clips/reviews on the Ryzen 1600 CPU (as that is within your budget) - and post back with your thoughts.

*Note - all Ryzen CPUs are unlocked and the supplied Wraith cooler is quality and will hold a 3.7GHz comfortably...

Below is an example build that will plough through everything at 1080p. I've added 'your' choice of GTX card but would personally choose a cheaper option if in a budget as no real gains - as all can be clocked.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 2 x Gigabyte GA-AB350-Gaming 3 AMD B350 (Socket AM4) DDR4 ATX Motherboard= £101.99
• 1 x AMD Ryzen 5 Six Core 1600 3.60GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail= £188.99
• 1 x Team Group Vulcan T-Force 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-24000C16 3000MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey (TLGD416G30= £119.50
• 1 x MSI GeForce GTX 1060 Gaming X 6144MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card= £308.99
• 1 x Super Flower Golden Green HX 550W "80 Plus Gold" Power Supply - Black= £69.95
• 1 x Crucial MX300 275GB SSD SATA 6Gbps 3D Nand 7mm Solid State Drive (CT275MX300SSD1)= £85.99
• 1 x Toshiba P300 1TB 7200RPM 64MB Cache High Performance Hard Drive (HDWD110UZSVA)= £38.99
• 1 x Phanteks Eclipse P400 Midi Tower Case - Gun Metal Window= £64.99

Total: £1,096.08

So do you need a pre-built machine?

No worries - post in this forum - Clicky

Ask for a 'pre-build' system built around Ryzen and a GTX 1060 (or INTEL if you're not comfortable with Ryzen - but would urge you to look at reviews).

Afraid I don't do pre-builds - someone may come along - but if not posting in the above forum is more suitable for your requirements.

Do you think I can buy good pre-built PC for my budget to run all the new games on high or maybe even ultra graphic?

Thank you

For ~£1100 at 1080p gaming - most definitely for just a base unit.
