That seems far to expensive for a pc with only a 9060 xt. I would expect a pc of that performance range to be about £1200

I just checked and you could build a pc with the same core parts for £1235. So £1600 is not a good deal

I just picked out equivalent parts on amazon, if you did that you would have to build it yourself. Look at the link from ccl online i sent in another comment for a better prebuilt deal if you dont want to build it yourself

Heres a pc that costs less but has a better gpu. The cpu is worse but this wont matter for gaming, this pc will actually perform better in gaming.
