(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey guys, I want to move to the PC scene but have no clue where to start. I'm a total novice at PC parts and this is where I need your help! I want to spend around £2500 on the PC but this has to include all the accessories. E.g monitor (2 if possible), mouse, headset, speakers and a gaming chair (recommendations). Not sure if this is possible but would prefer the GPU to be a GTX 1080. I'm probably asking for too much. But my max limit will be £3000. Any recommendations are appreciated. Thank you Happy
