It's been so long I've forgotten! Probably some egregious stuttering or something :D

We will see! Might get rolled up into the main IGN or Jelly Deals account in the future, but I plan to keep it going as EG Deals or something for the moment!

I'll be watching and supporting as a fan, as I'm staying with IGN to keep bringing tech coverage to Eurogamer. Rich, Tom, John, Alex and Oliver: thank you, it's been an absolute pleasure. bsky.app/profile/digi...

07.08.2025 14:02 — 👍 100 🔁 0 💬 3 📌 0Battlefield 6 is rather excellent at this early stage! Feels a world away from 2042, with better defined combat roles, more interesting weapons and (dare I say) better squad play. Definitely recommend checking out the open beta today, tomorrow and this weekend! www.eurogamer.net/heres-how-yo...

Final Fantasy Tactics is always good
Play Metaphor, steal seems to work 100% of the time - and you can freely rewind to the start of the battle if it fails!

Had to bodge a low profile mic arm for this extremely light microphone

21.07.2025 12:41 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0The Intel GPUs are a little out of date, but they're good for specific work tasks that can be accelerated with Intel-specific hardware - not quite so much for gaming. There's one B570 Nitro OC for €298, so you could go for something along these lines

Hope this helps! Any questions, feel free to ask - and if you do end up ordering from Amazon UK, which probably works out a bit cheaper, let me know as I can re-run the numbers - and provide an affiliate link if you wouldn't mind. Thanks!
21.07.2025 12:13 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0GPU - RX 9060 XT is a lot of compute for the money, and comes with 16GB of VRAM here. If you play at 4K, FSR Performance will give decent frame-rates. DLSS would be (much) better, but the cheapest RTX 5060 is €357 with only 8GB VRAM. Cheapest 5060 Ti 16GB is €497 - probably too expensive.
(3/3)
SSD - Went with the cheapest decent option for budget reasons, would recommend adding in a 2TB or larger NVMe drive when your budget allows
PSU - 80+ Bronze isn't ideal, but we need something cheap to get close to the budget and this is good for the money. Cheapest Corsair modular 650W is €94
