Its been a while since I last came onto these forums. I have posted other specs here in the past with the intention of moving forward and ordering only for circumstances to change and prevent me from doing so. Since its been so long a lot of components have become obsolete and others come onto the market. as such, I feel a little out of the loop right now. So, Ive spent some time browsing the forums to see what our resident experts suggest for other builds posted here and have come up with the below spec.
Ill be using the machine primarily for gaming and some office work. (nothing taxing)
Games I tend to play are Cities skylines, The Forest, Planet Coaster and the upcoming Planet Zoo. Budget is around the 1500 mark but would need to include a monitor. (4k not a priority)
Anyhow. I think I've done a decent job here. Just looking for an expert pair of eyes to look things over and suggest any improvements or issues I may run into.
Thanks for your time.
