Create a PC build under £700 for AdGuide Gaming.
Hi,
I'm searching for a budget gaming PC for my partner. I want the best performance at the lowest cost possible. I've been researching various parts but my understanding is still limited. I know you can opt for older components, like AM4 instead of AM5, but I'm not sure about the advantages and disadvantages of each option. Could someone assist with suggestions within a £700 budget? I'd prefer 1080p with a solid frame rate, and ideally some 1440p options as well. Thanks!
Welcome to the forums, newcomer! Could someone help me out with some suggestions with a max budget of £700 - the cheaper the better? What do you need included in this price tag? You're advised to stylize your therad with info asked of in this thread; *How to Ask for New Build or Upgrade Advice* How to Ask for New Build or Upgrade Advice First off, respect where respect is due - this is an adaptation of the Animal's *How To Ask For New Build Advice* Sticky. I created this because there's a lot of posts nowadays asking for upgrade advice both on here and on the CPU forums, and I feel... forums. and the community can chime in with worthwhile suggestions. You've mentioned your budget(absolute?) but we'll need a couple of more fields of info. Include all the games you'd like to tax the system with so our suggestions are tuned accordingly. Would be happy playing on 1080p with a decent frame rate, but would certainly be nice to get some years of 1440p too. So you're looking to upgrade to 1440p, meaning your system should have an option to drop in a beefier GPU?
1080P
