Ghozer   112 #5 Posted September 12, 2015 Let me know what you want and what your budget it and I can help you build a custom PC to your specification..  The problem with buying from a store, is most only provide a 1 year warrantee - where as buying the components and building it yourself, you will get 3 years, or more on some of the components...

Ghozer   112 #9 Posted September 12, 2015 There's a difference between a gaming machine, and a development machine, and then again for a game development machine...  You're looking £2000 easily for something that will be a decent gaming AND development machine (considering you're going to need to be able to run lots of code and debug it at the same time as running said game or app)  Also, a dual (or triple) display set-up is recommended for development, have you considered this also?

You can get 16gb ram, 2tb hard drive, I5, for £400. Not laptop but big bulky tower!  ---------- Post added 12-09-2015 at 01:56 ----------  Just to add you would need to add a monitor.
