My old Dell laptop is not even good for playing basic PC games anymore and I would like to play games at 1080p on new PC and I am making a game so I need PC to be able to run FL studio,Photoshop,Unity.. I was using PC at work but now we have a lot of work and we don't have a lot of free time now so I decided to build PC. But I don't know what GPU,CPU,Mobo I should buy..If it's better to buy USED or NEW?Should I spend more on CPU or GPU... So I was thinking you guys can help me. My budget is around 1000€

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

OpenCL has caught up to CUDA. Is CUDA slightly faster? Probably. But the difference is very minimal. Also, is his work utilising GPU accelerated workloads? We don't know.

 

On the other hand, the 390 would be better for gaming - and at a lower price.

 

Remember, his budget is not in USD. It's Euros. I also wouldn't recommend a CX500 PSU.
