£700 PC

[Tobycj]

Budget (including currency): £700

Country: England

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Fortnite, Minecraft, School

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 was thinking of getting a 5 5600 with a RX 6600 XT to play Fortnite at 200-300fps+ and wanted to hear some opinions no peripherals needed just a PC.

@filpo aren't some B450 MB good enough for 5600? (could reduce price for the 1st build)

You could put in the b450m pro vdh Max from msi but the vrms are worse (though not by a lot). Good idea https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/kRTzK8/msi-b450m-pro-vdh-max-micro-atx-am4-motherboard-b450m-pro-vdh-max
