    New The PC Build Thread

    I'd appreciate some input on a new build. My current PC is 10 years old at the moment. Getting back into some gaming now that the kids are older (and the eldest will likely also use the machine for some gaming from time to time). My starting budget was around R25k. Started playing around...

    Thanks - I've seen the plus 1, but I've yet to find it in stock locally (and the websites that do list it show it going for double the price of the old shelly 1).

    Shelly 1 Alternative?
