Neppy5000

Well I've been a bit hesitant to look for something used as I don't wanna risk anything. But I did just take a quick look at eBay (I don't know the best sites to go to) and someone's selling a used MSI Armor 1070 Ti 8GB with a 1 bid of $300AUD, There also seems to be a used Gigabyte RX 580 8GB for $200AUD plus free delivery. These seem like some pretty damn good deals to me.

Hi, this is my first time building a PC, and I'm not sure what parts would be the best for me, all while fitting into my budget. (Sorry if I'm sort of a "tough client") Getting the important basics out of the way; I live in Melbourne, Australia and have a target cost of around $1000AUD but I can go higher (and pretty much have to for what I want) up to about $1500AUD. I'm aiming for something that can play most current games at at least 60fps 1080p on mid-high graphics settings, but I would it like to be able to handle 144hz 1080p at mid settings too for if I can get my hands on a 144hz monitor in the future. Here's some of the games that I want to use this system for, and what performance I want with them in no specific order. (Note; I can be a quite lenient with all of these, if it won't be able to run what I want with that performance, then that's not too much of a problem to me.) If possible at this price point, I'd also like it to be VR capable. I think here's where things get a bit more complicated, because I don't want this to be just capable of gaming, I also want something that can handle some decent video editing, like fancy schmancy After Effects stuff, not Michael Bay levels, but like entry level video editing stuff. I'd like it to be capable of decent screen recording and streaming. I have a mouse, keyboard, and headset covered, so no need to include the costs of that into the build. But, I do not have a monitor, and am looking for a decent 60fps 1080p one. Hardware Preferences & Other Notes: I'm happy to compromise wherever completely necessary. While I wouldn't call myself an "Nvidia fanboy," I am familiar with Nvidia, and am very hesitant to use an AMD graphics card, though when it comes to CPUs, well despite my sole experience with Intel, Ryzen has become way more attractive since my research. I'd highly prefer 16GBs of RAM, at least 1TB of hard drive storage, and at least 240GBs of M.2 SSD storage. I would also like the PC to have at least some sleek stylishness to it. Basically, not a complete "no dollar wasted" build. Preferred colours: Red, Purple, Black, and/or White. (Don't put the purple and red together though, I don't think they'll like each other much) I don't plan to be overclocking this system at all. My current PC is the Dell Inspiron 15 3000 series. It's become slow and unresponsive as hell after the years, and basically anything that can get into full working order in under <15 minutes after a restart will be a lovely improvement. (CPU: Intel Core i7-5500U RAM: 8GB (DDR I dunno) GPU: GeForce 840M) I'm currently looking at the Ryzen 5 2600, and the GTX 1060, or the GTX 1660 Ti. Those good? Sorry for having such a long post and for it being a bit all over the place, but I'm hoping that all that minimised the questions you may have. Thanks in advance for the help.
