    Drop the win 10 pro, home edition is perfectly suited to your needs unless you need and understand business/ enterprise features like Hyper Client virtualization or connecting to a windows domain. you can save yourself 25 quid right there.
    Do you really need an optical drive?
    Honestly, the 1650 is a pretty bad card. I mean, It's not bad on a budget, but the 1660 is so much better performance for 57 more quid.
    the AMD R5 3600 is a pretty rockin' chip for the price.
    you really don't need 32 GB of ram, unless you want to run like 50 tabs of firefox with Beam in the back ground. 16 gigs will be more than sufficient, with an easy upgrade path down the line later if you really feel like it.

    He’s right. The 1650 is pretty bad for BeamNG. I’d suggest picking a R5 2600 and for the savings you should be able to get a 1660.

    cheers

    I have an older system (as seen in my signature) and I use a 1050ti - 1650 is only about 20% better for £10-£20 more, I suggest 1660 or 1660ti or 1660S (if you can afford it) as they have around 90-100% better performance for around £50-£80 more. I need to update my system too, and I was thinking of the 1660ti or an AMD alternative.

    Yeah Completely right.
    I’d go with the Nvidia equivalent in your case, the gtx 1660 is about 20% better than an Amd equivalent (rx590) for the same price

    Hi.
    Sadly you chose a good cpu and a very outdated gpu. For 600 pounds you ca get a Ryzen 5 2600, gtx 1660, 16 gigs of 3200 MHz ram. A b450 mobo and a cool rgb case.

    I’d say it’s surely going to be a bottleneck situation. Your gpu of choice is kinda old and The cpu is too good for it. Everything else is fine, it’d be good if you went with a modern card. I’m not sure if your gpu supports the current DirectX version.

    You probably want to swap out the GPU, and get a more powerful one. GTX 1660 is newer and more powerful, and worth the extra cash. Also drop Windows 10 pro, and get the normal version. Unless there are certain features you absolutely need, going to the normal Windows 10 will suit you well.

    What I saw from this is what the others mentioned, a GT 710 is not worthwhile for £713 - You might as well buy a prebuilt from CurrysPCWorld or something, much better value for money than a site like pc specialist. A pc with a GTX 1650 is more usual for prebuilt now, you can get them for around £500-£800.


    *Edit* I found this AMD equivalent with a 3200G & a Radeon RX570 for £600
