Dear Tom's Hardware Community,
My budget for my gaming pc has unfortunately lowered from 1500euro to around 1200 (preferably near the 1000euro budget) and I was wondering how good of a build would it be possible to create with this kind of money? I want to game every day for at least an hour (obviously not every day in the year but like 2/3 of the year I would be gaming on it), I would like to be able to get highest settings (or near highest) and have NO LAG at all (if possible with the budget). The build that I would have wanted to build with my budget of 1500euro was this one:

However I need to lower my budget and was hoping you, the community, could possibly help me out to make builds that are perfect for the conditions I mentioned above whilst staying in the budget of 1000-1200euro (+/- 50euro, or less than 1000 is obviously even more perfect).
Thank you!!! Any answer, solution or build is VERY appreciated!
Update:
- AMD Builds are welcome but I am not familiar with them so maybe some helpful articles about them comparing them to Intel would be great!
- If any specs on how good the build would be for gaming (like what settings would I be able to play most games, etc) could be mentioned under your build, would also be great!
- Minimum specs:
1. No lower than core i5-8400 (or whatever is equivalent to that in AMD)
2. Minimum GTX 1070 (GPU)
3. SSD and HDD (as I heard this was ideal for gaming pcs)
- Also if you could possibly send some links to youtube videos that will help me build my pc whether it is AMD or Intel! This would be a huge help!
Update!
So I ended up getting the cheapest website and got the total price of 1,289.13euro for my build! (Yes it is out of my budget but I can make it work)
- CPU (275euro)
