[Build Ready] PC For A Mate - Gaming, Photo Editing, Occulus Ready.
Putting together a PC for a mate who wants to be able to game (flight Sims, racing, FPS) edit high quality photos and Occulus as well. Monitor is 1080 I think but might upgrade to 1440 in the future. Prices are in AUD and might not reflect the supplier we use, but would appreciate comments on the cohesion of the build.
Is the 750 overkill for PSU, PCPP brings it in at sub 500 but if double GPU in the future would the extra overhead be needed?
