Hi all,

I used to be into PC gaming back in the late 00ies but have not played for several years now. However, I have decided that now is the time to get a new PC and I am considering buying the below set up.

My existing monitor is an ASUS VZ249HE-W 24 Inch (23.8 Inch) Monitor, FHD (1920 x 1080) and not planning to replace it.

I have read the guides on this forum but wanted to post to see if the set up makes sense. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Hi @MicSve what is your budget? Just incase there are tweaks to the build we'd recommend its good to know what we have to work with so to speak :)

To be honest I had not really given too much thought to the case but primarily picked it because it is white like my monitor and office desk. Given the case will be on the floor (and out of sight) I will probably go for Fractal Design Meshify C as suggested.

Thanks again
