Gaming PC with i5 8th Gen, 16GB RAM, GTX 1060, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD

Description

So, I’ve got this gaming PC that I’ve actually been using pretty much every day for the past couple of years — not just for games, but also for work, video editing, and all sorts of stuff. It’s an Intel i5-8400, 6-core, 2.8GHz with turbo boost up to 4GHz — solid for what it’s doing. Got a GTX 1060 6GB card, which means it can handle most modern titles without too much lag.

It’s got a 256GB SSD (NVMe) for fast boot and loading, and a 1TB HDD for storage — plenty of room for games, files, and projects. 16GB of DDR4 RAM (HyperX), so it doesn’t stutter even when I’ve got multiple apps open.

The case is clean and tidy, everything’s installed and working — Windows 11 is set up, with antivirus, Photoshop, Office, and all the usual tools. It’s got WiFi, Ethernet, HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI, audio/mic ports, and plenty of USBs — USB 3.0 ports too, which is handy.

I’ve played through nearly every major game on it — Grand Theft Auto V, Fortnite, Red Dead Redemption 2, Elden Ring, Cyberpunk 2077, Apex Legends, Valorant, Warzone, Genshin Impact, Skyrim, The Witcher 3, Fallout, Call of Duty, and way more. Settings will vary depending on what you're playing, but 95% of popular titles run smoothly.

It’s also been used for office work, CAD, video editing, music production, GoPro footage, and even some 3D printing and web design — so it’s not just a gaming machine, it’s actually useful for daily tasks too.

I’ve lived in county-durham, England, and I’ve kept it well maintained — no major issues, just a reliable machine.

The price is £333 — fair for what it is, especially since it’s still running great after years of use.

If you’re looking for a solid, versatile PC that doesn’t break the bank and can handle both gaming and everyday work, this one’s a good fit.
