Long time no see, techspot!
I have long considered building my own PC, or buying a cheap but good pre-built gaming machine. I now have a couple of weeks to build my own PC, and also the money to do so. However, I would still like to keep it reasonably cheap, around £300-400 would be great.
I have considered THIS one for a while now, as it appears to be able to play the latest games, and isn't to pricey for me. However, I believe if bought separately to build, I could maybe beat it and slightly cheaper?
I am not talking a complete gaming machine here (I spend most of my gaming time on my PS3, mainly due to my old PC), but it would need to be able to play the latest games to a reasonable standard. The pc I linked above can play games such as Far Cry 2 on high settings, so similar to that.
As I said, I have some free time over the next three weeks, and a bit after that, so any guides to learn how to build my own pc from scratch would be welcomed.
Thank you.
