I need some help on what to buy please

[craigjones1013]

Hey guys, I'm totally new to all aspects of pc gaming.. I've been a console gamer for as long as I can remember, but I have now decided to make the switch!

I'm totally stuck on what to buy.. My budget is around £750. Any suggestions would be really appreciated.

I've been looking at this one, do you think it's worth the price?

If I were you, I would try to build it yourself. It isn't difficult at all after you have watched a couple of building tutorials to get the basics down. They're much better value for money, and you can upgrade easily in the future. If you want to go that route, I can make you up a PC Part Picker list for that price point, just give me an idea of what you plan to do with the system (gaming/productivity etc.)

Agreed, built it yourself and get something much better then a prebuilt.
