Please keep your build discussion to 1 thread.
Hi, I'm about to build my first PC soon and this is what I have come up with, I'm looking for suggestions and areas of my build that I can improve on. This build will be mainly used for gaming (steam, CoD, watch dogs, rainbow six seige, etc) and university.
Budget : $1000- $1200 AUD
Also since the pandemic has occurred, I was wondering what would be the the best time to purchase these parts, would it be Black Friday, Christmas sales or new Years?
Thank You for your help
