Need opinions on this rig please

[bolony21]

Hi, first post here; looking for some opinions before I click the buy button.

I have been looking for days now and this seems like a good deal to me, can I have your thoughts please. I am looking for a ready-built high performance gaming PC under £1,000.

Thanks in advance.

That is rip off,
This looks much better: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fierce-Apex-Gaming-PC-High-end/dp/B06XPGBK31/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1510940544&sr=8-2&keywords=1060%2B6gb%2Bpc&dpID=51OY%252BtRI7UL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch&th=1

Or this:

Add a 240-250gb SSD for~70 pounds, still cheaper but better than your choice. You can search more on Amazon with the specs you want

Shows how much I know ha!

Thanks for taking the time to pick out some alternatives.

If you are willing to build your own, you can get better builds with same or cheaper cost. I assume you only want prebuilts. Just keep in mind, upgrading prebuilts will usually be a pain. Stay 7th gen I5/I7, 16gb ram. Don't waste on FX or Athlon etc junks, Ryzen 5 is good alternative to I5/I7 but couldn't see too many for prebuilts yet.

Ok great thanks. Yes I was only looking at pre-built; your input is much appreciated.
