  1. >What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.
  2. Mostly playing a wide variety of games like for example CS:GO, Overwatch, Path of Exile, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. I want a PC that will last and not get outdated instantly and run these games on high settings with a high performance.
  3. >What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?
  4. My maximum budget is about 15000 crowns (Sweden) which converts to around 1500 USD, preferably a little cheaper since I don't want to burn all my money.
  5. >When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.
  6. Anytime during the Black Friday sale.
  7. >What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (Tower/OS/monitor/keyboard/mouse/etc\)
  8. The PC itself and a new monitor 144hz or higher. I don't know if I'll pick a curved or flat monitor though since I don't want to mess up my aim in fps shooters like CS:GO.
  9. >Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?
  10. I will be purchasing the parts in Sweden, Dalarna.
  11. >If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.
  12. I'll be reusing all my current parts except for the PC and monitor.
  13. >Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?
  14. No.
  15. >Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)
  16. I would like an SSD, maybe a bigger one, but I'm fine with a big HDD if it doesn't fit my budget. And I dont know what all that other stuff is so I probably wont be needing it.
  17. >Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-tower/full-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?
  18. I don't really care about appearance so ATX would be good, easy to upgrade later on.
  19. >Do you need a copy of Windows included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference?
  20. I would imagine that I have to rebuy Windows for this PC and then it would probably be the normal Windows 10 Home.
  21. >Extra info or particulars:
  22. Pretty much a complete beginner when it comes to PC building so I am quite clueless.

From what I've seen a lot of people have recommended not to buy that Video Card, is it really good? Thanks for the reply btw.

That card has one of the highest boost clocks among all 5700xt, but do have some potential memory cooling issues. If you want to avoid that, then the below card has good reviews...
