Has your budget been holding you back from levelling up your PC gaming? You may be surprised to hear that doesn’t have to be the case. While you can certainly make your bank account sweat by building a custom gaming PC packed with bleeding-edge hardware, there are more money-conscious options open to you. Here are a couple great systems you can get yourself for under £600.
