I'm looking to build a gaming PC that can outperform a PS5, particularly since I play games like Rocket League and Call of Duty. One of my frustrations is that Rocket League doesn't support 120 FPS, which is a big reason I'm leaning toward a PC setup. Can I realistically do this for under £1200?

For specific build recommendations, it’s a good idea to check out some dedicated forums where experts can guide you through the best options under your budget. You'll find a lot of useful suggestions there!
It can be tricky because you’ll need peripherals too, but it's still achievable! Just keep in mind that if you're aiming for the top specs, something like a 3080 Ti might squeeze you over the budget, especially with the PS5 pro on the horizon.
Exactly! Also, if you're already equipped with a decent monitor, that’ll help save some costs!
Absolutely, you can build a PC for under £1200 that will definitely outperform a PS5. For instance, a setup using a graphics card like the 5070 with an R5 7600 or 9600 should do the trick well.
Yes! If you focus on gaming at 1080p, it's not a problem at all. You can even manage at 1440p with some decent components without breaking the bank.
Good point! Plus, I realize I could spend less on a mouse and keyboard versus a PS+ subscription, so maybe I just need to plan better.
