I am planning to buy build a gaming pc

What you think about this one?

My maxmax budget is €1300 but must include everything (mouse/keyboard and display)

This is what i found

This pc in parts are more expensive.

Idk now bettwen amd and intel
(Was always using intel and nvidina but i heard that ryzen is very good)

Thanks
 
No upgrade path, outdated. Maybe 60fps in 720p.
I know that.

I find it for like 200-220€ all together.
I would swap this gpu for like 1070 or rtx 2060.
this pc will cost me then like 250€.

Monitor,mouse,keyboard and chepest speakers haha with my 50€ coupon will cost me like 140€ so all together whole pc with everthing about 400€
 
Nvidia gtx 1650 (will be replaced with 1070 8gb) will sell 1650 and buy 1070 so myb the price will be = or i will be a 30€ in loss in gpu swap.
I5-10400f
16gb ram ddr 2x8gb
512gb ssd m2 or nmve idk
For like 200-220€ (with gpu swap lets say 250€)

Or
CPU: Intel i5-8600K 3.6GHz
TUF Z370+ GAMING
32 GB RAM
ASUS RX 580 8GB

For like 300-320€

Price for Monitor,keyboard.mouse and speakers 195€-50€ my coupon= 145€
 
You would have to think on how much you can sell those parts once gain when you decide to buy your new components.

This again depends on how long you plan on using the above PC.

You can find the recommended specifications for the games you play and decide on a ballpark configuration.

If you really want to save cash, try going for AM5 B550 based used PC. Atleast you can upgrade to the 5700X3D and get pcie 4.0 for GPU and SSD.

For that price as above i cant no way.

I am planing on using it a little longer.

What you think about this two pc above?
 
The 8600k and the 10400F both kinda use the same architecture. The 10th gen is optimised to give higher boost clocks. But both are 14nm chips.

Whatever clock gains you get with the 10400F is equalised by the 8600K's overclocking headroom. Both the CPUs have boost clock of 4.3 ghz but you can push the 8600k above that.

The RX 580 is again better than the 1650. And you can overclock the 580 to eek out a more performance.

Neither of these are worth getting. If you need a PC now there is no use waiting for new stuff to come out later.
