Hi all,
I'm fairly new to PC gaming and would like some advice on the build below. Any concern/overkill? should I change something. I'm not really big on gaming but want something which can last few years. I'll be mostly playing games like Forza 4, MS flight simulator, ETS2 and sometimes counter strike.
I started with a budget of £1000 but ended up with £1104.
Appreciate any advice.
Thanks
