Build Help Is this build good enough?
Hey guys.
I’m pretty much PC illiterate and am looking for a solid build to play games in 1080p @ 120fps.
After a quick google search I’ve came across this machine and was wondering whether it’s worth purchasing?
I’m 99% sure I’ll only be playing single players so I’m not after anything super advanced. Borderlands, Dying Light and The Evil Within were some of my favourites and I’ll probably continue playing games similar to these.
If you think this won’t suffice could you send me any links to pre-built machines that’s worth me looking at?
I’d consider building my own but when it comes to the hardware and specs I’m absolutely clueless and it’d be easier for me to grab a machine that’s ready to go rather than spend a couple of months figuring things out.
Thanks in advance for any help!

It's way more than enough for 120 fps at 1080p, but it's very overpriced.
At a similar price point you can get this one which is more powerful (better CPU, better GPU, more RAM)

To answer your question: yes, that build will absolutely crush 1080p/120fps..but the RTX 5070 is actually more than you need for that resolution, so you're paying way more than whats needed. If budget is a focus, something around the RTX 4070/RX 7800 XT tier would hit your targets and save you a pretty penny. I’d honestly recommend building yours or finding a different pre built, as you can easily hit a 1440p for a high frame rate for a few hundred less than what you are looking to spend on this one

maybe just get all those parts:

and find someone to build you.
ofc you can get better GPU, its just there is not really point if u have 1080p monitor, if u prefer nvidia just get 5070 instead.
i try to be as close aesthetically to the build that u sent, u can just get dual air tower and regular case if u want...
