What game are you playing?

You may not need to spend £1300 for new PC.
you can build a mid-range yourself for £700.

Thanks, Project Cars, Rez Evil 7, there are 1 or two others that may have been released or due to be released, rpg' type games not neccesarily war games though I'll prob try one of the latest call of duties.

Your mid range quote 700-I asssume that doesn't inc monitor?

If you find the time to post a suggested spec I'll consider for review though i'm finding when I add a monitor thats pushing above 1k t.b.h.

(Edited typo's via ipad air bluetooth keyboard)

Feel free to suggest spec though I prefer intel and lowest p.c. Noise as possible .
I know nvidia gpu's by past use, unable to comment on amd gpus 460' r's etc.

(As I have m.s. Building isn't as simple as it once was)

You could pic up a decent monitor from ebay at a fraction of their costs

Agree,thanks I'll alow Cisco to suggest a spec@700 approx and then search for a monitor.

If I could get maybe inteli5 and a half decent nvidai gpu -700 approx that will leave some room to add monitor, though it has been suggested some of the amd gpus are comparible these days, though no idea which ones will run most games, I'm not trying to acheive top res or vr just half decent system to run and play games.

Spec -Ciisco?-amd or nvidia 650-700 I'll add a monitor via ebay.

Project Cars, Rez Evil 7 are on PS4.
Would it be cheaper just get PS4?

Anyway, here is my option as a mid-range PC.
Add Monitor/ speaker/ wifi/ keyboard + mouse probably another £150.

You may need to add cpu cooler if you feel the stock one are too noisy.

Corsair 300R case on sale at Scan right now. Good value if you like the style.

If you want Nivida, probably GTX 1050 ti

did the OP not say they have MS so could not self build

Cisco001

By the way, if you don't mind referb PC and last gen i5 and possible not so good PSU, this could be a good choice.

Arr... didn't notice that.

These are just suggestion.
If he go for those customize build, it usually add 15-20%?

Thanks all inc Cisco-no concern ref m.s. I last uprgraded my late 2011 macbook 4 to 8 g ram and aded Samsung Evo+existing hdd caddy-the ssd flew then I wnet late 2013 macbook both i5's though after a few years thought I wasn't getting full use hence since sold via ebay and went Ipad air since last year.
Still got the philips and torx screwdriver sets -I think building a p.c. Would allow more room t.b.h. Though I don't want to risk making a mistake and return parts etc.

Though I've since considered Amazon today-just a monitor to add.

ADMI Intel GAMING PC (Intel Core I5 7400 3.5Ghz Quad Core Processor, NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti 4GB DDR5 Graphics Card, HDMI, USB3.0, 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 RAM, 1TB Hard Drive, 24x DVDRW Drive, Corsair PSU,
Vantage Red Gaming PC Case, No Operating System)
550 inc vat approx this includes my spec for a year or two and a return to p.c. Games etc.

Since aded Asus 21.5" monitor+wifi dongle (recommened by p.c.review as existing wifi not reliable or to that effect)

Total 663 approx.

As I make a return to dektop p.c.'s after using osx from montian lion/Yosemite//Mavericks/El Captian(hated that name) and last year Sierra early betas -I've forgot to added to my Amazon order....Windows! -theres another 95 approx.
