Please could someone recommend me a gaming PC? It's for my stepsons who previously had a home built £2000 machine but I can't afford that really.
Minimum spec would be to play Balders Gate 3, it says corei5, 8gb ram, gtx970 graphics card. Would any off the shelf (Amazon) gaming pc be ok in the 700/region? I want one that will handle gaming needs but don't want to pay for more than I need. I also not confident building my own.
Thanks in advance
Tough one if your stepson had a £2k gaming rig previously, no way he can upgrade that?, or is it ancient?
This one has got latest gen graphics (4060) from this year. Will play that game nicely unless he has a 4K monitor, then you need to spend more cash unfortunately.

Don't buy the one you have seen with a GTX970, that card came out in 2014 and would really struggle.
Happy to advise if you see any other options, been building gaming pc's for 20 years!
*edit .... realised Baldurs Gate min spec is probably GTX970!
