Budget (including currency): € 2100

Country: Belgium

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Main use will be gaming and browsing, might use it for light engineering programs for work later. Assasin's creed Valhalla, The witcher 3, Far cry, Doom eternal and Monster hunter world are the types of games I would like to play.


This will be my first PC build, after some research I came up with this build and I wanted to ask you all if this a good build or which problems this build has. I also included the monitor I to buy alongside this build as I think I will get decent framerates at 1440p with this build. I come from an Acer aspire V3-772G laptop which does not run games as smoothly or not without alot of crashes. As I have recently got a job, I thought it was time for a change to a new desktop to be able to game again. One of my concerns is the CPU stock cooler being sufficient enough for a gaming desktop as this, might be worth to note that I won't be doing any overclocking. I also would like to know I how long you think this build is futureproof as I might want to upgrade parts in the future if my gaming experiences drop.

First thing I would say change would be the SSD. You can get a M.2 (much higher speeds) for a similar price point.
