Hardware - CPUs
144 clean eBay UK sold comps put the Ryzen 5 3600 on a rock-flat median of £49.99, and a bundled cooler adds about £5 to that. Here is the real buy price for a flipper, and why the textbook formula overshoots on a chip this cheap.

The graphics card decides almost everything about how a gaming PC actually feels to play, so it deserves the lion's share of the budget. Here's how much CPU you genuinely need beside it, and when paying more for either one stops being worth it.

24 clean eBay UK sold comps put the MSI GTX 1070 8GB on a median of £78.54, gently softening across the spring. Here is the catch: at this price the margins are pennies, so the flip only works if you buy low and buy in volume. This is the number to pay.
