Looking to build my first PC, I've been a console player for a while and looking to see how the other side live.

    I'll be using the PC for gaming/streaming movies/internet browsing/MS packages, I'd like it to more or less handle any game comfortably and be able to multi-task without any issues.
    Won't need a monitor, keyboard or mouse.
    Colour wise I'd like it to be sleek and black, nothing flashy.
    Won't be overclocking.
    I'll need a OS.


Budget around 500 GBP. Can go higher if its worth it.

Cheers!

Don't have a monitor, was just thinking about buying one separately, you could add one in.
Games include Elder Scrolls Online, CSGO, PUBG, Destiny 2 etc.

You can get it down to £650 if you swap the i5 for an i3-8100. Id try to get a used GTX 970 for about £150, instead of the 1050Ti.
