Hey all, as mentioned a few months ago, I am planning to build my first pc.
I do not have any experience myself, so I have had to resort to some online sites to help me out.
It's a bit over my budget as I was planning to spend £1,250 and the only reasonable way to get there would be to go for a GTX1060 (6GB) and/or remove the HDD.
I think picking a good CPU means it will last me for a long time as games aren't usually CPU blocked as far as I know.
What do you guys think of the following using pc part picker?
Any advice on things to change ?
Plan is to buy all of this/equivalents in August, but I'm quite excited and so doing the research now
