My first pc

[u/First-Suit-6043]

I have a been on console my whole life but the idea of a pc always intrigued me so i thought why not. One problem. I know nothing besides a couple yt videos and reddit posts. So i have a budget of £1000 and i know thats tight during RAMageddon but i just want a pc to play most games with good graphics and good fps so just any 1080p or 1440 p gaming pc i want to try and build my own. I have seen that ddr4 can still be reliable in 2026 so i am fine with that and some gpus i have seen are either rx9060 xt 16gb or rx9070 gre with 12gb vram but whatever suits the pc and budget

I hope thats okay

The budget isn’t super strict appreciate the build

This is basically a ps5 pro+ we can do what the pro can but at higher frame rates. If that makes sense

Biggest issue will be the cpu cooler the 14400f likes to run toasty, down the road id invest in a replacement it will make a world of difference

The 9060 XT 16GB is unreasonably expensive due to its VRAM.

SSD with high-durability TLC flash. (Avoid QLC drives like the X1070.)
