Hey all, well first off please accept my apologies if this is in the wrong section, I wasn’t really sure where to put this topic as it doesn’t fit the technical problems but I’d really appreciate any help you guys can give.


So, previously I haven’t been able to afford a PC so I’ve made do with my PS4 to play FFXIV, but recently I’ve had a little stroke of luck and I’m now in the position of getting a PC. Now I’d really like to get a PC that’s going to last me for a few years but I have a limited budget. I was thinking of going to the likes of overclockers.co.uk and getting them to build a PC. However, I’m not sure whether overclockers is the most cost efficient and was wondering if there’s anywhere that I’d definitely get cheaper. I’ve done a little google search and the other sites I’ve tried seem to be more expensive.

Also, getting a custom built PC, is that the best way to go? I used to build my own PCs in the past but I had so many problems with faulty parts (we had a terrible courier at the time and that stopped happening when the company I was with changed couriers) that I’m reluctant to try again, I’m also unfamiliar with DDR4 builds and wouldn’t be very confident with building my own just yet.

Any advise is much appreciated and again apologies if I’ve posted this in the wrong section!
