Looking for some of you lovely fellas to help me out with coming up with a PC build. The PC will mainly be used for playing games and I have a budget of £1000-£1200.

Hit me with your best builds. <3

EDIT: Already have HDD and KB+M so those won't be needed.

Do you need any peripherals?

You can make my exact build for less than that, so that's always an option/starting point. Originally it cost me about $1400 total, but it's like ~$900 now if you manage to get the GPU at a reasonable price. I can play pretty much everything on their highest settings at 1080p60. I'm not sure how different it runs for 1440p120 b/c my monitor is 1080p60, I doubt there's much of a difference, tbh.

I have nothing to go on since this will be the first time I've ever attempted a build. I have 0 experience with any of this.

The PC mention here is good though I have a few suggetion before you go buy a PC.

1) CPU : Intel - Core i5-8400 or 8600 depending on your budget.

2) If you have a budget get 16GB (8x2 sticks) DDR4 RAM.

3) PSU: Make sure to get a 600W 80+ bronze PSU. Its a good investment. If kept right it can give 4 years.

4) GPU: The GPU suggested is 1080Ti, while this is a beast I would suggest you wait a while as Nvidia is about to release 11xx series by end of August. This will lower down the prize of the previous generation GPU.

5) Mobo: The mentioned motherboard 'Gigabyte B360M DS3H Micro AT' is a ok board, though my suggestion would be:
