    £365 gaming build

    Well how big of an SSD? Do you want an SSD just for the Operating system or do you plan on putting games on it.

    My father does not believe in free Anti-Virus but needs some form of protection

    At the facility we work at a lot of people use the same computer not to mention my fathers internet habits are not as disciplined as my own. What is a decent anti-virus that is worth the money. I guess another question would be what is a good anti-malware. I will see if I can just get...

The boards in question for this matter are the...
