[thomchopp]

hi there.

I'm 16j and building my first gaming laptop.

I have kind of a low budget and dont really know what parts are good for gaming and editing.

You're always welcome to help me if you want.

 

PS: Sorry if my english isn't good i'm from Belgium.

Ok, first, a desktop isnt the same as a laptop.

2nd. This is the wrong subforum, try using the build forums.

3rd. Tell us your budget a low budget could mean anything.

I recommend

 

CPU: Intel Core i3 6100

Motherboard: Any H110 or B150 

RAM: 8GB DDR4 

GPU/Video Card: GTX 1050Ti 4GB

Awesome I'll be making a list. Do you care about looks? Like having a case with a window that you can see into or do you not care if your build is just a black box

What currency is that? If it's USD then that's a pretty high end build.

 

If it's CAD then it's probably enough for a doughnut, maybe two if there's a sale. /s

Ok no problem!

Here you go. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/99KH7h

You could always swap out the 1060 6GB for a 1070. 

I'm not sure if this build fits your needs, but I really recommend making a post on the subforum "New Builds and Planning" just click here  and it will take you to it. You will definitely get more help from there

lol I spent about $1500 on my build and it's a budget pc (I paid a shit ton of taxes when my stuff arrived at port of entry)

If you are using buying from German stores, do use euros instead. Price for parts is quite higher in EU than what US stores show. It will help much. And if you budget is €1500 for just tower, that really isn't low. You can get nice gaming rig for €1000-1200.
