I'd recommend FTL! Hardly graphics-intensive though...
Ass Effect trilogy, if you haven't played it.
Ooo, and get some VR going! Plenty of great games there 
Like Superhot, I Expect You To Die, Hitman... |

What games do you enjoy already?
I play alot of Escape from Tarkov, so i would recommened that. But not if you are somone that rages easily or doesnt like a challenge
If you like racing games i would say Forza Horizon 4, Assetto Ccorsa or Asseto Corsa Competzione
Total War Warhammer 1+2 is also extremely good if like strategy games |

What's FTL?
I don't likeVl VR stuff personally
I've played the mass effect trilogy but I'm not spending £55 on the remastered version that looks borderline identical  |

"Red Dead Redemption 2 is absolutely gorgeous. Cyberpunk 2077 is another I'd recommend. have they fixed cyberpunk now...I'd be stopping all the time to look at the puddles  "
I never had many problems with it to start with, but they've released several major patches since launch. |

You can sign up for the XBox Game pass in the Xbox windows app. You should get an offer for a month of ultimate for a £1 (I got it for £1 for 3 months). Forza Horizon is on there aswell lots of other good games |

Both of these are on my wishlist for when they go on sale  "
Use a site called CDKeys.com. cyberpunk is like 9 quid or something atm on there. only issue is unlike steam you cant refund |

"Genuine question, how much better are pc games vs xbox/ps games or are they similar in quality graphics compared with a tv screen
What's the lowest cost entry level gaming pc and awesome monitor ?"
Due to the modding community and better hardware PCs have much better quality and performance than consoles on the higher end. Consoles as far as I'm aware are still limited to 4k 120fps.
For PC's you can technically play 8k or 360fps.
The graphics vary from game to game, but unlike consoles PC games can have their graphics greatly enhanced few years down the line by the modding community.
There's no such thing as lowest cost entry gaming pc and monitor. You have a budget and you have to make it work within that by making the optimal choices for whatever you're planning to use it for
Oh and DO NOT buy/build a PC right now. |

Not played mass effect trilogy on pc, badly need an upgrade on my pc. If ass effect is a game that exists and not a typo, I want to play it. Also remastered Skyrim is good too. |

Yes. You just go to the +add game option on the bottom left of steam. Then activate product on steam. copy and paste the key and then you are done.
Some keys are not for steam tho so just check. The CDPR games(Witcher,cyberpunk) are normally GoG codes tho, which is just like steam |

Depends on how much you want to spend right now the best quality you can get is Xbox series X and pair it with a 8K tv
Hand down will wipe the floor with any pc
Pc aren’t running true 8k to get 8k the cards renders at 1440p and then off loads to a upscale chip in the card to be upscale to 8k
With think off the Xbox as the grafics card it will render at 4K then off load to a 8k tv for upscaleing
Witch will give a better quality image |

"Nice graphics card, lucky to get hold of one of those. How about Death Stranding?"
GPU are available the situation has changed in China so they are selling off stock
I've managed to pick up a Rtx 3070ti from ebuyer.
Message the BOT they will give you a link, email which card you want and they will add it to the basket.
This was a few weeks back so I imagine it's even easier now
What we all need to watch out for is Windows 11 |

Thanks, I saw the news about China and crypto, just didn't realise they'd started to flood the market quite yet. Some friends will be happy. I'll stick with my 2070 super for a bit longer yet though.
As for Windows 11, I'm all ready to go, although I feel it could be another Windows Vista or 8. They only seem to get every other version of Windows right! |

I think it's will be a bios update if your cpu isn't more than 3 generation old.
Unfortunately I've got a couple of ivy bridges on my home network, my main rig is Haswell devil's cannon running and i7 and 1070ftw. Funny it enough it's absolutely fine but the upgrade itch has taken over |

Didn't think you could get any more FE cards. Got a mate with a 3090 he used a url link on a reddit post which took you to the nvidia basket page, someone else's details which he removed and put his own
He was sh#tting a brick until it arrived.
Enjoy tho |
