In the market for new PC, need some input

Sebbannn

I’m in the market for a new PC, since the old one I have doesn’t run games good at all, I currently have a Nvidia GT730 2GB and AMD Quad-Core A10-7800.  My budget is around 1,200 USD which converts to around 10500 (10600 according to google) SEK since I live in Sweden.

I have never build a PC before the one that I currently own was prebuilt. I was looking around on the internet a bit looking for different prebuilt ones but then I came up with the idea of building one on my own to save a bit of money since I’m a student.

As mentioned before I looked around a bit on my own and found the following:

https://www.inet.se/kundvagn/visa/11589930/namnlos

Now I can build it myself or I can pay an extra fee to have them do it for me.

I feel like the parts above are really good considering my budget.

 

So my aim with this build is to be able to play some games like Battlefield 1, I did some (google-ing?) on the different parts and what I can see it should be able to play most games at ultra?

 

I currently own two monitors, not planning to add a third.

 

I have also considered upgrading my existing PC, could maybe be an option? But I would need a new casing as well as I feel like a lot of parts in my existing one is old and outdated.

 

Im looking for some input on the build liked above, maybe someone knows of a better one?

 

Thanks in advance -Sebastian.

If you want to save some money:

 

Remove the Kingston - A400 SSD

 

Use a non rgb corsair vengeance 2 x 8 3000mhz kit

 

Get a gtx 1060 6gb instead of the gtx 1070 if you don't need the extra power.

 

 

Also i kind of went with a black and white color scheme i don't know if this appeals to you but this is what i would be going for at that price range.

 

PC specs:

1x 8gb Ballistix Elite 3200MHZ

MSI Gaming Trio RTX 2080

G650M PSU

120gb Kingston SSD

3TB of HDD
