Part pickers comes to about £750 (allowed only £25 for Windows, £17.99 for cooler), so not bad for £799.99 with 3 year warranty (First 30 days - FREE Collect and Return on fault - 1st Year Covers full Parts and Labour Return to Base - 2nd and 3rd Year Labour Only Return to Base)
Digital Foundry did a similar build (slight better specs) - so about similar performance expectations (1080p max details most games will get 60fps or more)
I got around £700. So not incredible deal imo but should do for some

I didn't realise PC Pro was still going! Guess it's just the online presence that has disappeared

The "3 year warranty" isn't worth much if it only covers parts for 1 year.

Oh it's still going, I guess old habits die hard, I brought the 1st issue on release, now looking up when that was, it was back in 1994 :confused: They are still online just re-branded the online as http://www.alphr.com/ I know it's sad knowing all this :stuck_out_tongue:

But can't a laptop or tablet deliver the same power for a cheaper price? :wink::laughing:

This seems like a pretty good deal....plus it's customisable (so you can add an SSD with the OS on it)

How can you say that when people still use the 2500k? that thing pairs with 1070s fine, granted ARMA and Total War, may notice something, but saying a Skylake (Most recent intel cpu) is a bottleneck, nonsense ???

Isn't this a better deal? Only differences seem to be the 6600k vs 6400k and cooling system vs £820 and £672:
