Hi all I'm currently working on building my new computer. As I'm relatively new to PC gaming I've gained a little knowledge of parts that are good for what I want through watching videos on YouTube etc.
My current PC doesn't give me what I want as I went into PC gaming with a small budget as I though I wouldn't like it but it turns out I LOVE IT.

The link below is the build I'm going to be working on, so all I ask of anyone who sees this is to tell me if it's good or if I need to change anything.

Also as I want a more crisp communication while gaming with my friends please tell me any good
microphones that i could get for PC, my budget for the headset would be £120-£150

All I want from the PC is a crisp 1080p 60 fps experience.

This build is MUCH better.

I changed the mobo so you can OC your CPU, I changed the PSU to a much better quality one, I changed the CPU cooler, and instead of a extra 500GB SSD I put a much cheaper 1TB HDD.

Good luck! 😀
