Looking to build the perfect gaming setup on a budget in 2024? In this video, I share affordable options to create a great gaming space without breaking the bank. Whether you’re gaming on PS5, Xbox, or PC, I cover everything from choosing the right platform to the best budget-friendly accessories.

Here’s what I cover:
1. Choosing Your Gaming Platform – Whether you’re a PS5, Xbox, or PC gamer, finding the right platform for your budget is the first step. I game on the PS5 Slim, which I got used for £369 from Cash Converters, but there are cheaper options depending on your platform choice. Look for deals and pre-owned options to save even more!
2. Gaming Desk – I bought my Whitby Desk With Shelves in White from Ryman’s for £59.99. The product code is 1032000704. If you’re on a tighter budget, you can find used options for around £50 on Amazon or eBay. You can also consider secondhand desks from local furniture stores or charity shops to save more.
3. Gaming Chair – For comfort, I use the Nautilus Ranger Mesh Back Chair with Arms from Ryman’s for £49.99. The product code is 1075202308. If you’re on a tighter budget, a basic kitchen chair or any affordable chair can also work. Remember, comfort is key, but you don’t need to spend too much to be comfortable.
4. Monitor or TV – I use a Hisense VIVO Smart TV (32-inch, £159) for my gaming setup, but if you’re looking to save, you can get a used monitor or TV for around £50 from Cash Converters or eBay. Also, check for discounts or deals on Black Friday, Cyber Monday, or seasonal sales!
5. Budget – I suggest having a budget of around £500 if you’re really tight on cash or £600 if you can stretch a bit more for your full setup. Try buying during sales or looking for bundles that include essential items like controllers and games to maximize your budget.
6. Capture Card & Camera Tripod – If you’re a YouTuber and need to record your gameplay, I recommend getting a cheap capture card to record your screen, and a camera tripod stand (like the Valbon CX 480, which costs around £40-£50). A capture card will allow you to record gameplay from your console or PC directly to your laptop or computer for editing. You don’t need to break the bank to get quality recording equipment.
7. Affordable Accessories – Don’t forget about small accessories that can elevate your setup, such as affordable gaming mouse pads, cable management tools, and controller stands. These little upgrades can make a huge difference without costing a lot.
8. Gaming Posters – If you have a bit of leftover budget, consider adding some gaming posters to personalize your setup. I have a metal Darth Vader lightsaber poster I picked up for £10 from Vernon Fox, and a Star Wars Mandalorian Holographic poster (the kind that appears to move when you change your viewing angle) for around £5. These posters add a fun touch to your gaming room. However, be aware that some of these prices may be slightly higher now due to the cost of living crisis, so keep an eye out for sales or local deals.
