PC build for friend

[Matias_Chambers]

I have a friend who lives in Germany. He is looking to get a new PC. He needs a monitor and the PC itself. He doesn't need a keyboard and mouse. Budget is MAX 600 Euros.

 

He will be playing mainly Minecraft. No demanding games.

What kind of activity is he planning on taking part in? Casual Gaming? Hardcore Gaming? Work?

Give me some time...

For some reason pcpartpicker wouldn't let me picka motherboard so I recommend this one:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157511&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC-_-pla-_-Motherboards+-+Intel-_-N82E16813157511&gclid=Cj0KEQiA5oy1BRDQh6Wd572hsfkBEiQAfdTPCvYT9ObC8BgU1R2s93WkZw1xNORik2p2UKEV6tBx0wYaAruV8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds

 

It would be around 610 euros

Buying some pieces used, like from ebay.de (http://www.ebay.de/itm/272113163778?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649) you probably can get some SSD.

The SSD and the PSU are really bad, and the iGPU from the i5 too. And the monitor is bad too

That CPU is going to give him bad performance for Minecraft, it's a crazy CPU intensive game.

You can do this and save up to for a R9 380.  If that is too much, the GTX 950... and if need be, a R7 370(or 260X) or GTX 750Ti:
