I brought my son this PC a few years ago (spec below) off the shelf from Currys and he's at the stage where he requires a bit more graphics power. He's currently running this with a 1080p 144Hz monitor (MSI OPTIX MAG241CPUK). He plays Fortnite, CS GO and occasional some of the older Black Ops games. I think he'd play more if he felt his spec could handle it.
Without having to upgrade anything else I'd been thinking that a 1650 super would be a nice little upgrade and maybe another 8gb of ram. Do we think this is possible, or should I look at a more comprehensive upgrade? Does anyone happen to know if you could send the unit back to PCS and ask them to upgrade to a given spec? I've not seen this listed on the site but I may have missed it.
Thanks all,
Dylan
