    Customised CCL NebulaX Gaming PC

    CPU AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6GHz
    RAM 32GB DDR4 3200MHz
    Graphics GeForce RTX 2060 6GB
    Storage 1000GB Adata XPG SX8200 Pro NVMe SSD
    2TB Seagate BarraCuda HDD

    £1,236.99
    or £1,336.99 with Windows 10

    Same price, double the RAM/SSD space.

    But if professional support is needed, call Dell & negotiate.

    Thanks K.O.Kiki


    I will suggest Dell to them. Good point about support.


    Is there anything pre-built at the likes of Komplett, Currys/Harvey Norman or even Argos/Amazon that would be suitable?


    I suspect that 32GB Ram or 1TB SSD may not be needed for the application mentioned.

    Currys have terrible after sales care. In fairness none of the bricks and mortar shops are great. CCL or Dell or a like would be my suggestion also. If you have to go B&M then Argos if you can find something without terrible specs.
