Hey Everyone! I'm looking to get my first Desktop PC for gaming and development.
Gaming: I mostly play console right now (Series S), I'd be looking for something that can run decent in 1440p for a bit of an update in graphics! I don't tend to play the most demanding games, but would like the option to try whatever I fancy with decent graphics (Games I'm excited to play on PC include DayZ, Hell Let Loose, Total War Series)
Development: Looking for something I can use for Mobile app development (android) and Godot
Monitor: I need to purchase one, was considering the AOC Gaming Q27G3XMN as reviews look good for the price - if there are better choices out there I'm not set on this option
Max Budget: Looking to Spend up to £2500 all in, including monitor so looking at £2200 for the PC. If that balance needs shifting then can look at the trade offs.
I saw a post with a similar budget to mine, and borrowed the suggested spec from there. I've removed the OS since I have a windows 10 key from an old laptop I don't use anymore (I believe this should be transferable?)
