£800 pc for friend

[TheSenpaiOfTech]

My friend will be building a pc soon(waiting for ryzen though) for gaming. His budget is £800. Any suggestions? U.K

Not enough info, does he want ryzen 7? If so i doubt it possible, he need more than 800 to build balanced system.
Here https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/ + ryzen 5

Ryzen 7 system can be had for that price but you won't get a dedicated graphics card.

I would wait for Ryzen 5 however if it's Ryzen 7 that he want's then this is what I'd go with this for the budget.

Would u go for ryzen 7 with no gpu yourself mister? Thought so.
Ryzen 5 will be close to ryzen 7 in games anyway.

I rocked the integrated graphics for a long time, it reminds me how lucky I am now.
