I wanna help a friend build a pc and she's got a budget of around 400€, she said she doesnt care whether or not she has to put games on low graphics.

She mainly wants to play Arc:Survival Evolved, Gmod, LoL etc but she'd also like to be able to play some AAA games without stuttering.

For GPU i was thinking of a gtx 1050ti, otherwise i've got no clue.

Thanks in advance

 

EDIT: She's situated in The Netherlands

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

*7 1/2 months. I still usually like to play it safe unless op can get h110 mobo from somewhere that guarantees an updated bios.

looks like it wasn't one of the boards that had a bios update as early as October 2016. point still stands though, 7.5 months is alot of time for the older motherboards to be sieved out, and he could ask the seller if it's been updated or not.

Still, I usually like to play it safe unless op can gurantee they'll get one with an updated bios. It's kind of a pain if they get one without an updated bios, and the chance is still more than like 1/1000000.
