I do have a PC currently, although I just can't play the games I'd like to play, I want to play PC & Console, I'm wondering if anyone can help me build a good PC that can run every game, I've no real budget I've no need to go over the top, but I'd like a PC that will run all games at the highest graphics /w really good Frame rate.

Can anyone help ?

I'm not much of an expert on this stuff, so I don't know where to start & what's best etc.

Edit: I'd mostly like a PC that I can play the main games /w a high FPS etc, but a computer that will be easily to upgrade in the future

This is nowhere near enough information for anyone to be able to help you.

What exactly does your current PC not do that you want it to?
What are your current specs, including make and model of case and PSU?
What exactly do/will you use your system for? What games? What else?
What is your maximum budget and currency?
What monitor(s) are you using with this system?
Will you overclock?

Here is a great starter build.
However it does not have a graphics card due to availability and inflation of pricing of them.
I'd say to get a GTX 1080 or 1080 Ti due to you wanting high FPS and games like PUBG are demanding.
Retail on a 1080 is about $500 and 1080 Ti is $800

Is it possible you could rewrite this or list what I need? that would be great, because I see you just copy and pasted, or shoot me an IM, maybe you can help me build on a site I can instantly buy from ( that I've been looking at as I do like their PCS )
