Hey peoples!
My little brother asked me for help with his first self build computer, but it’s been many years since I looked into components and stuff. So I’m pretty confident about assembling it with him, but I have no idea, what to tell him about buying. Please help!
When are you purchasing the parts? Around Christmas.
What is your budget? Up to 1000€, preferably less of course.
What are your needs? (Online) Gaming at 60fps, 1440p.
Your from the PC: No need to update parts for as long as possible ;-)
Your location: Germany
Your preferred sellers/websites: -
Your part choices: -
Why are you upgrading? He is playing a lot of WoW and it seems there is a new expansion that his current PC can’t do. Also, other (newer) games he can’t do, so there’s that.
Your current PC specs: From the pictures he sent me, I would say it’s an HP 500-433ng.
Intel Core i5-4460, 8GB DDR3, 16GB SSD + 1TB SATA HDD, VIDIA GeForce GTX 745 4GB GDDR5, Gigabit Ethernet WLAN 802.11b/g/n
Do you plan to upgrade this PC? Maybe reuse the WLAN-card or the case? Not sure.
Ithat helps, I can see whether I can provide more info about his current computer, but for me it seems pretty dusty.
Thanks in advance, kind humanoids <3
