Hello
I am looking to buy a new gaming PC - my current one is from 2009 (see below, with a few upgrades where I have put the year I purchased those).
Do most people tend to buy parts and build the PC themselves or buy those custom made ones on pcspecialist for example, or buy pre-made configurations these days? Any recommendations of one over the other? (I am based in the UK btw)
My budget is £1000 (ideally not really more than that). I have a monitor (Dell U2412M bought in 2014) and peripherals etc. already.
If you have recommendations for parts I should buy pleaseeee help me out - I haven't looked into this stuff in years so am completely out of date.
Current configuration is:
intel i7-920 2.67GHz
intel DX58SO ?extreme motherboard
Corsair DDR3 6GB RAM
MSI GTX 760 Twin Frozr IV OC 2GB GDDR5 (2013)
WD 500GB HDD
Seagate ST1000DX002 SATA 3 1TB (2019)
Asus Vento Case
XFX Pro 550W Core Edition PSU (2013)
I will be most likely playing on this monitor for now (maybe an upgrade in future) and maybe would like the ability to sometimes stream to my 4K TV for controller friendly games.
Thank youuuu and apologies if I have missed any key pieces of info out
