Hello there!
Long story short, a friend of mine is building a gaming PC. (And yes, I'm asking for a friend because he doesn't know how 2 English.) The budget is about 1000€, assembly fees are covered already. Sadly, we both have very little idea of PC parts.
Approximate Purchase Date: As soon as possible, if everything goes right on Wednesday
Budget Range: About 1000€, including shipping and taxes
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, that's kinda it, apart from very very basic office tasks (running Word, making Power Point Presentations etc)
Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: Everything (Apart from Case)
Do you need to buy OS: Yes / No
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Whatever is the most affordable
Location: Nuremberg, Bavaria, Germany
Parts Preferences: Doesn't matter, they only have to be compatible with one another, obviously.
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: If it needs some kind of special technical work to be done, No, if it may be installed like a normal graphics card, doesn't matter
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: Even though it's very likely not possible with the budget anyways, please no liquid cooling as I do not trust myself enough to install it.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My man's been playing on a 2009 Laptop for years now, barely anything runs on more than 5-10FPS. Not the ideal experience.
Anyone got any tips? Feel free to ask if you need further info
Thanks in advance!
