Hi there! So after 6 years of my current PC build, I've decided to buy a new one in two weeks time. I'm not the biggest computer expert, so I've tried my best to pinpoint my criteria as best as I can:
My budget is £1500~1620 (May be able to go £20 more, but would prefer to stay at 1.6k or under) and I would prefer to buy the build first before splurging out on a new 144Hz monitor, which I'll probably buy separately in September or October. I currently have two old 1080p monitors (I don't know the details to be fair, all I know its that they're pretty old Acer monitors). If you would like to advice me on which one is suitable, that's fine but as I said, I would rather buy the build first.
I do like to Photoshop and Video Edit from time to time, so I don't want just for gaming, but the games I do play ranges from RPGs to FPS, my main games right now are Overwatch, Valorant, The Sims 4, FFXIV and GTA V. I'm looking forward to playing Cyberpunk in the near future and would like a PC where I don't have to upgrade for at least another year or two.
One thing I am worried about is the liquid cooling, my current system doesn't have one and I'm a bit hesitant on getting one, but I heard AIO is the best way to go? The idea of messing with an sort of liquid cooling makes me nervous, so if you could recommend one within my budget, will fit the case and that doesn't require any maintenance, I'd appreciate it.
