Need help to pick out parts for my first pc

[Aerodiastima]

Budget (including currency): 2000 GBP

Country: England

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Apex legends, Dcs world, Blender

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):

 

I'm looking for a pc that can support VR for DCS 

 

I'm quite confused on what parts I need and have no clue if what I'm looking at is overpriced or a good deal.

 

Any help is appreciated

This is all you will need. Everything else that you upgrade will only give you small boosts in performance while costing a lot more. If you want you could change the SSD to 2TB, but 1TB is probably more than enough.

If you want the best you can get with the money go for this. But once again price/performance won't be amazing. The only reason I recommend doing this is if you plan on using this system for as long as possible.
