Need Help with a first PC Build

[MesZa]

Budget (including currency): $800 AUD (includes shipping)

Country: Australia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Rainbow Six Siege, Valorant, Minecraft, COD Warzone, Triple A games (i.e. Watchdogs Legion, etc), school work and working on my charity.

Other details Preferably 1080p (but I can do a little lower), Motherboard needs to support WiFi, preferably at least 70fps, at least 500gb of storage, 8gb of RAM, Case with a window (if the parts look good/presentable. If not, than a good looking case without a window is fine). Wouldn't mind RGB if the case has a window. Don't include peripherals.

played around for a while in PCpartpicker for Australia and damn it's rough pricing for anything new over there. For $800 you are definitely going to find better hardware upgrading a used desktop with a previous gen i5 or i7 or ryzen 5 2600ish. Adding a 1660ti or wait for a bunch of people trying to dump their rtx2060 and 2070s for cheap when the new cards release. 

 

you should be able to find i5 8600 systems with 8 or 16gb of RAM and 500GB SSD or maybe 1TB HDDs well under $500 which leaves you $300 to get a graphics card.

So your saying I should find a cheap prebuilt or used PC and upgrade it?

That's how I would get the most out of the budget
