I am looking to do a build for my son's Christmas as he now wants to switch from XBox One to PC for games.
He plays Minecraft, Fortnite and PUBG mainly. He also wants to start recording and editing gaming videos (kids are weird these days), so I have been looking around at different components and am thinking;
AMD Ryzen 5 2600X with a MSI X470 Gaming Plus board,
16GB DDR4 3000 Patriot Viper RAM
GTX1060 6gb GPU (looking at the Asus Dual OC card)
730W Semi modular PSU
Boot will be from a M.2 SSD with a mechanical 1TB drive for general storage.
Looking for opinions on whether this will do the job comfortably or should I spend the extra £50-60 on the i5-8400 with a H370 board?
Thanks all.
