Hi all! My friend wants a gaming pc but wants help with finding all of the parts but I am not 100% certain with what parts he should get, I’m thinking on the line of an i5 with a GTX or Radeon gpu, he says that he will mostly play BO4 and Fortnite *facepalms* but still wants room for future upgrades.

 

many thanks!

i have made this the only issue is that I don’t know too much about the Ryzen and Rx scene as I am more of an intel and Nvidia person but as he is playing less intensive games and is on a tighter budget ADM would be better

Wouldn’t a 3Gb gpu be a bit limiting? And also would I have to buy windows 10 or is there a way to get it for free?

No not for the CPU it's better because of the optimization it has in more games than the RX check the benchmarks if you want I'd stick to Nvidia. The 6GB is even better but more expensive as well but the ryzen and RX build you have is really good so stick to that. I would personally go to Intel and Nvidia because I'm a mainstream bitch that won't take risks.
