Trying to squeeze this build under £1000

Hey man, did some minor tweaking, but the major thing I did was to remove the W10 copy. You can do the following:

  • Buy a key off a site. I used Amazon and got a key for £30. There are others ofc, and it's a reliable method. Download the W10 ISO and create a boot drive from a USB using the W10 Media Creation Tool.

Anyway, here it is:

This is far more CPU horsepower focused, but it's what you need. Saved a bit of money here and there, and tried to take into account you spending some dough on a key.

LMK what you think.

I'd have rather gotten a modular PSU into the build, but it was a necessary sacrifice. Still a decent unit! Just need to be clever with the cable managing.
