I am trying to select a build under £2000 (ideally closer to 1.5k) as a substantial and lasting upgrade from my current. Is there anything you would suggest doing differently in this budget?
Is the GPU overpowered for this processor choice in terms of gaming?
I have gone for significant storage, me being lazy and wanting all my larger modern titles installed for when I would have time to play them in my upcoming busy work year.
Any thoughts appreciated!
