Kevin writes: After a short period of despair I decided to undertake the task of building the new PC myself and I learnt a lot of useful information in the process.
I’ve since finished my build and am glad that I took up the challenge, but at the same time it took a lot more time and effort than I had originally anticipated. In this article I aim to layout my plan of action for anyone who’s thinking of building their first PC, in the hope that I can save you some time and maybe even some money.
A match made in post-apocalyptic heaven.
"Today, Nested Lands, the survival-settlement RPG from META Publishing and 1M Bits Horde set in a dark world full of pestilence and madmen, launches into Steam Early Access." - META Publishing and 1M Bits Horde.
"Nuevo Tokyo is about to get even louder. During IGN Fan Fest, Amber-owned studio Madbricks, in partnership with REDRUM, officially announced that Mexican Ninja will launch this year on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam." - Madbricks and REDRUM.
My advice to anyone wanting to get into PC gaming is to buy an Alienwaire desktop as they're a bargain! Either that or get a Mac as they're also a bargain and have thousands of games available for them. Another tip is to buy games on Origin as they're the best digital marketplace alongside UPlay. For people wanting to build their own to max games out at 60FPS they will need good hardware, an Intel Duo Core setup alongside an Nvidia GTX 260 is the perfect rig to max out games for the next 12 years.
Truth.
Do some research look at reviews and bench results youtube has great reviews on cards.
It is quite easy. . you'll be glad you built one.
And, you can save tons and tons of money on games.
