I want to build a cheap gaming pc (about £450) but I would also like it to be able to live stream possibly do 3D design and edit videos. I will not be playing games like crysis but possibly battlefield and similar graphics games.
Will also need a monitor but that is not included in the price. I am flexible on the budget and know its hard to get a cheap gaming pc that performs well. Thanks for any help in advance it's really appreciated.
Links welcomed.
