Hi guys.so a relative just asked me this question "are hp computers any good" He then showed me what he was planning on spending £600 on .It was an all in one 27" hp with 256gb ssd and a random i5 cpu and 8 gigs of ram .
He wants to use the rig for running his 3d printer some light gaming and general browsing . I have not built a pc since i built the rig i am using right now which is an i7 7700 .So i am a bit out of touch with pricing and bang per buck performance. I put together this build on paper and he wants to go ahead and have me build it. My question is .Am i doing his cash justice ?? I am mainly concerned about the motherboard and cpu bundle. Is it overkill? And is the rest of the rig compatible?
