Hi Ozbargainerzzz
My little brother (16 years old) has a birthday coming up, and the family is pitching in to get him a gaming PC. We have a budget of $1000. Ideally I would love that to include a monitor and new keyboard and mice, but I don't think that will happen. I do have a spare monitor that I can give.
He always wanted to build his own, so this would be a perfect opportunity to get our hands dirty.
He plays FPS on PS4, such as BF1, so I would love it to be able to play those games with ease. He also plays a lot of steam games on his school laptop, but he says he can't play some of the games, due to the limit the Yoga 3 has.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated, and where is best to find these parts.
Motherboard
CPU
RAM
Graphics Card
Hard Drive
Case
Cooling
PSU
and anything I have missed
very true. price is almost double. Considering 90% of his gaming will be on steam, I think the i5 7400 will be ok with a good GPU. RX480 or GTX1060
