Hey, I wan to make pc, for gaming and working. I am low on budget so I am thinking of going with igpu. I think Intel i7 9700k and Intel i7 10700k are good options.

Ram 8gb 3000mhz, nvme ssd 256gb, 550w psu. My work includes android development on android studio and little graphic designing. For gaming I play valorant, cs go, dota 2.

Which should I choose

What is your exact budget? "Low Budget" is relative, for me low budget could be 800$ USD, but for you it may be 400$ USD.

id say go for an amd cpu. youll be able to overclock on a cheaper motherboard, and youll get better graphics

you can do something similar to this, make sure if this psu is not available you get a decent psu. On the psu tier list (search linus tech tips psu tier list) make sure to get one reccomended for igpu system, or one in a higher tier. This is in the igpu part of the list. If you get a really bad one, you can fry some of your parts which wont be good. the cpu is 4 cores 8 threads which should work, but it might not be optimal. for your price range though, it might be your best option. And with this config, you can oc your cpu and ram to get extra performance.

This one is the same but with an 8 core 16 thread cpu. It has slightly worse graphics, but if you want more on the work side than the gaming side, you can do this. I have made it the cheapest case available to make it close to the budget, but it might restrict airflow

This last one only has 8 gigs of ram, to make it into your budget just barely. otherwise same as the 8 core list, but with the first case
