    Does anyone have a company or shop they could recommend I go to in Dublin / Meath to purchase my first gaming PC? I will probably be using it primarily for strategy games like Heroes of Might & Magic, Age of Empires etc. Just not sure where to start and a personal recommendation always goes a long way. Thanks

    Those are old low spec games, just get a laptop. Pretty much anything will play those. Don’t skimp on the memory, low end laptops frequently have the minimum to run the os so upgrade that first.

    If you're in Dublin / Meath, you might hit up Crono in Phibsborough or Overclockers in Blanchardstown — they’re good for custom builds and advice. Also, Scan Computers often have solid staff who know their stuff. Try to bring in a list of the specs you want (GPU, RAM etc.), so they can show you matching builds without overspending.
