Hey all, I have budget of around £900, £950 being the absolute maximum (if necessary), and in about a month I'm going to build my first computer.
I've put together a list...Bear in mind I'm not that knowledgeable about all the parts...Which is why I'm posting this.
I just want to know if these parts are compatible together, and if so, will I be able to play most games on medium-high graphics? Also, some advice on what I'm not spending enough on, or what I'm spending too much on etc is appreciated.
Probably a stupid question - To connect to the internet, do I need to buy something to build in to the computer, or is network capability already included somewhere in these parts? (I already have a router of course)
