[SOLVED] GAMING PC UNDER £750

[fazbear87]

Hello!
i am currently undergoing the process of building my first PC. my budget is £700 or close to that and i would like to play games such as fallout 4, house flipper and cities skylines.
i was wondering if anybody could recommend specs appropriate in my price range?
Thanks
Harry

You could consider this, which is fractionally above the 750, but gives you really good bang for your buck.

Make sure you buy the motherboard at an online shop where they have the capability to update the bios before shipping.

Just clarifying the motherboard I linked does actually take 3rdgen without BIOS update but most other B450 need a BIOS update.

And even then many MSI ones have BIOS flashback

There's me not looking more closely ......

Good to know there's one that does.

You forget, the only reason why I know about that board is because I did the same before someone else corrected me! PCPartpicker still doesn't see it though.
