 New PC - smokie
Wow is that really the ball park figure for a decent spec these days? I would have thought no more than about £800 for a desktop without screen etc.

Good choice of SSD drives, unless you already have one you could use?

Don't see any wireless but maybe not important in a desktop, or it's built-in someplace

The USB can't be USB1, that must just be a header, you'd want at least USB-3 these days, ideally USB-4 which is fairly new

The +/- figures only add up (in my head) to something around £1k and they are the main components, so the base spec is £1.4k? That'd be a quite good machine I imagine. Whatever, if you can afford it, it's a great spec (and way above anything I'd need these days!).
