Question Looking for a new Pc

[Kbew]

Hi, as the title says I'm looking into buying a new pc with a budget of around £1000 the one I currently have I got off a friend about 8 years ago after he upgraded. I've tried looking into pre built computers but I dont really even know what I'm looking at. I'm looking to mainly record gameplay for uploading to youtube etc this being singleplayer games and maybe some online stuff. If anyone can recommend a good pre built computer or suggest a custom build it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I've heard Overclockers will put together your own build for about £100 extra if you email them with the parts from their site, and that would be your best option if true. This one would do a job, but of course you could do a lot better getting someone on here to pick parts for you if you have a friend or someone who could put it together for you for a fee maybe?

I'd bump the RAM up to 3200mhz using their configure option, even though you will have to pay extra for silly RGB lights. Not sure if you need an operating system?

Also, there's this from PcSpecialist. The case is a bit cheap and I don't know much about it. The 3300X is excellent value. Motherboard is kind of basic but good enough for what you need. GPU is substantially better here:

There's a few things you could change about but it's not a bad build for the price. Better than the UkGaming one IMO.
