My 1st gaming PC

[unsafegamer]

Should I start cheap with 1050 ti & r3 1200 combo and upgrade overtime? The 1060 6gb is 2x the amount and I think it’s quite an overpay but do you think I’ll be fine on current games. I would mostly play not much demanding games atm but I may choose to play things such as destiny 2 and the division. Could I get 60fps?

If you stick to 1080P by all means yes you can. What is your budget?

@TechyInAZ my budget is around £500 possibly £600 because I also have to get peripherals because it’s my first.

Here is just a baseline to get you started, do you need windows 10??

If you plan to overclock, go with a R3 1200 and save a few bucks. But make sure you go with 3000mhz RAM or higher (and make sure to enable it when you build the PC), as Ryzen runs a lot faster with high speed memory.

@TechyInAZ I was saving money on ram by buying some from a friend. And I was going to at least get 1050 ti. My problem is my friend doesn’t know the speed because his pc broke and he’s temporarily on a gaming laptop. As well as this it’s also 1 8gb but I’ll see if he has more to get dual
