Hello! I'm a total newbie when it comes to PC things and I was wondering if anybody could help in giving me in advice with the specs I'm going for the PC I'm currently configuring.

Its main purpose is for gaming and to run games relatively smoothly at medium graphics (say, for example.. Marvel Rivals?), the budget is also at around just below €1.2k, to Ireland if that's any help, and I'm using the Intel Office Computer Pre-Build as a foundation.

Also to add! I'm also looking for it to last a few years! Any advice would be appreciated!

Here's what I've configured so far:
*RAM: 32GB PCS PRO DDR4 3200MHz (1 x 32GB
*Graphics Card: 8GB NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 5050
*M.2 SSD Drive: 1TB PCS PCIe M.2 SSD (3500 MB/R, 3200 MB/W) (*debating on to change to the 512GB ver.)
Monitor: AOC 23.8" 24B3HA2

I wouldn't go for intel unless you need it for specific tasks
2 ram sticks is better than 1
1tb is a tad on the low side these days and definitely wouldn't drop to 512gb.

Imo you should save a bit more

yeah its very hard to actually fit to a 1200 euro budget would need slightly higher just for the pc

#

also would not reccomend a 5050 its really not a great gpu 200 euro more could get a 16gb 9060 xt which would give much greater performance

buying a 8gb vram gpu right now you probably will end up replacing it sooner rather than later with games needing more and more vram
