Hey all nice people.

I am currently looking for parts for a build.
It would be for my girlfriend. She studies IT for her needs I honestly would like to use a 6 core cpu if possible.

She loves to play games as well but she will be on 1080p for the resolution.

Any advice for this? All platforms are welcome (AMD and Intel)
I think the ryzen section looks quite interesting but I am not to familiar with it, especially for mobos.

What would be the best you can think of?

NOTE: OS, peripherals and monitor will not be needed to be integrated.

EDITED THE BUILD once again, added a 1TB HDD for storage. Took out the CPU cooler out.
 


That's a good Ryzen build.

The 1600 includes a capable cooler.

I would definitely add a 1TB storage drive.

Even if its main purpose is for backups I would add a secondary drive. All the eggs in one basket can be disastrous in college.
 


Well you're more than welcome to customize the build and change things around for him.
