First Build - No GPU

[iahmedde]

Budget (including currency): $850

Country: Egypt

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Daily [extensive] browsing - Video Editing - coding - Civilization 6

Other details :

i7-10700 (~$360), H410-S2h(~$100), 2x8Gb 3200 MHz RAM ($100), 256 NVMe SSD (~$80), 1T.B HDD (~$70) + redragon gaming pc case gc-618 + psu 600w (~$100)

 

GPUs here are crazy like the RoW. I've decided to ditch my laptop and build a better PC mainly for daily usage and get the GPU later when their prices calm a bit.

I'm not planning on playing AAA Games as I'll play them on my XSX but I will be playing 4X games like Civ 6.

 

There is this bundle for an extra $150 at a store: R5 3500X - 1660 Super - B450M PRO VDH - (1x8)3200 MHz - SSD BX500 240GB - kinda the same case and psu

I feel this is way overpriced for a 1660 Super and a downgrade on the other fronts. But this is my first build so I suck at making choices now.

 

What would guys suggest?

Thanks!

Might be relevant:

My current laptop has i7-10510U / MX130  / 8Gb 2666Mhz / only 256 Storage / 720p screen

Selling this would allow me to get the build mentioned which I feel a very decent upgrade, I will be losing the mobility of laptops but joke's on you universe I don't leave my house all year.
