Summer is here and the heat is on, or rather was on: I think we were graced with one week of good weather, so in good old Irish fashion I am figuring that is probably us for a while! Never worry, as with the sun gone and the rain back, it is the perfect weather to get comfortable playing the latest and great games. Boy, do we have some great savings for you, especially when you compare the prices to this time last year; no crypto boom driving GPU shortages, and RAM prices have finally started to look reasonable again after a few years of madness.

As always, they are custom built to your needs, so if you want a colour change, a part added in, or if you also need a PC with a new monitor and peripherals, then don't be afraid to ask, as each build is personalised to suit you.

Using the second release of AMDs frankly quite impressive APU (Accelerated Processing Unit), which is designed to act as a CPU and GPU on a single chip, this takes advantage of the built in graphics of the processor to run your display and games. Perfect for a console style build (ask about m-ITX) designed to hook up to the big TV and play games while kicking back on the couch. Don't worry about space being an issue if you want to upgrade in the future as this case can fit in full sized GPU and most CPU coolers, making this build a great choice if you're looking for a PC now but are willing to wait till the next generation of GPU releases, or to save up to afford your dream graphics card. Don't be expecting to run the latest and greatest games on full settings, but if you're happy being a patient gamer and playing the hit titles from a few years back or dropping to a lower resolution or lowering a few settings on newer releases, this would be a great way to get yourself started into PC gaming. Don't forget the 1000's of quality indie games that take very little to run or the extremely popular esports titles that this APU would handle: - games like Fortnite Rocket League, Dota 2, Counter Strike Global Offence, Overwatch and many more. Very much an entry level system, this would be a great starter for someone who needs a new PC, but is unsure if they will take to the gaming side of things, or a cautious parent who does not want to break the bank only for their child to lose interest after a few weeks. Featuring top-end components to complete the build, like the super fast 3000MHz DDR4 RAM and B450 AM4 motherboard that is capable of overclocking the 3400G to push its capability even more. Best of all, if you find yourself smitten by the world of PC gaming there is no reason you can't add in a dedicated graphics card to push your gaming even further, and with the 550w PSU you have no worry about power constraints. As a special offer for this deal we are offering a no service fee upgrade if you choose to buy a GPU in the first 6 months.

Upgrading the SSD to a 480GB NVMe drive increases capacity and improves boot times, load times and everyday responsiveness as well as leaving plenty of room for your favorite games and paired with a 2TB storage HDD you won’t be running out of space any time soon. For the CPU we have the wonderful Ryzen 3600 which when it comes to non gaming tasks averages about 34% faster than a i5 9600K whilst only just being 1% behind in gaming, and when you consider costs £60+ less the amazing value really shines though. With the combination of the 6 core CPU, SSD and 16GB of super-fast RAM, this PC will make for some quick and smooth multitasking & everyday use, also very fitting for some creative/production workloads. As the name suggests this build is aimed at gamers who want to push into either 144Hz monitors or 1440p resolution or even both with the right settings and games. With this combination of high end parts be prepared to play any modern game on very high or maxed out settings with a high FPS if you are @1080p or if you have your eyes set on a 1440p monitor this should have enough power to keep you in the 60+FPS range on high quality settings. This PC is most defiantly future proof, with the combination of high end parts and room to expand meaning it could be the cornerstone to an evolving build that, with the right upgrades, could stay in the high end bracket for many years. With spare DIMM(RAM) slots and plenty of power over head, you will have no worries about upgrading when you decide the time is right.
Each of these builds are flexible in their components which also means pricing, so for example, if you would like to get something in-between Deal#3&4 or already have some components left over from an old build, simply get in touch and we can discuss the best option for your build. Want a budget system but are not a fan of the C3 style case or do more than just game? Want a workstation that can also play the latest tiles? Get in touch to talk about your needs. Have limited space or want the PC to match a specific colour scheme? We build to suit you, so everything from the components inside, to the case housing them can be changed to suit how you want it to look and perform.
The free "Game Ready Service" has also been extended again this time indefinitely, meaning these builds will have it as standard. Typically, when you get a new PC you can't just turn it on and game, you have to download and install your games, configure settings, and wait for updates, never mind the fact that modern games can be upwards of 50GB in size, and on a slow internet connection this can mean hours if not days of downloading. With the "Game Ready Service" we will have everything ready to go as soon as you turn it on. We will also pick out our own personal favourite programs for monitoring your PC, as well as go beyond the standard checks, running benchmarks and further tests to ensure that the computer is running at an optimum level. Want a specific program ready? Just get in touch and ask.
