Budget (including currency): 900 USD

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Destiny 2, COD Modern Warfare, Doom Eternal ect.

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

Primarily used for gaming with the occasional amount of schoolwork. Just wondering what price is good for that and the amount of storage and/or RAM I should purchase
