    My son is keen to build own pc. He got some advice online and was given the below parts as a good build option

    I don’t know anything so would like to know if he’s buying the parts/good combination.
    Thanks so much.

    1. What is your budget? [€1k to 1.5k

    2. What will be the main purpose of the computer? Gaming. Steam online

    3. Do you need a copy of Windows? [Yes

    4. Can you use any parts from an old pc. No

    5. Do you need a monitor? No

    5a. If yes, what size do you need. [19'/20'/22'/24'/etc.]

    5b. If no, what resolution is your current monitor and do you plan to upgrade in the near future? [1920x1080/1440x900/etc.] [Yes/No].

    Think he’s planning on using the TV for the moment and will get a monitor later. Is this wise?

    6. Do you need any of these peripherals? [Keyboard/Mouse/Wireless Card/Card Reader/Speakers/etc.]. - Yes need all

    7. Are you willing to try overclocking? [No]

    8. How can you pay? [Bank Transfer/Credit Card/Laser]. Any of these

    9. When are you purchasing? [In x days]. ASAP

    Here’s the list:
