    I'd recommend going onto the forums on OverclockersUK. Just post your budget, the type of games you want to play, and the resolution you want to play at. They will spec you a build.

    I find overclockers usually expensive...

    BTW, Tomshardware forum worth have a look if you need recommendation of the component required. obviously, you need to tell ppl you are in UK as that forum have ppl all over the world.
  • Overclockers also have premises in Stoke.
    There is another company called Palicomp that have premises In Crewe.
    So if you are In the North West, either of these might well suit.
    +1 to the advice of asking for advice on forums. Post budget, requirements etc and someone will usually help with a balanced build.
    Have personally used PcSpecialist for multiple systems and have found them to be very good

    If you don't buy Windows 10 from an approved source please be aware that its likely not a genuine Windows 10 key because no third party vendor apart from Amazon and Microsoft are allowed to license digital downloads.

    So anyone claiming to sell keys is likely not legal.

    I see this kind of scaremongering repeated year upon year.
    Many know that you don't even need a product key in order to run Windows 10. So paying £100 for a key for a home user, would just be an acute form of idiocy.

    If I was able to put random codes in for it to remove any 'nag', I would do that. But in reality, one does not need a key at all.

    Thanks for your contribution, I'm happy to agree to disagree and move on. You buy via Amazon or Microsoft and I can buy a recycled or otherwise working key from elsewhere.
