    Hi, first post on this site,
    I'm looking for a build in the €600-700 range. I'll be hoping to play recent games at a decent frame rate and quality, although I've only got a 60hz monitor currently so I'm capped at 60fps. This will be my first build as I'm upgrading from PS4. I'm thinking of getting a GTX 1060 6GB and perhaps a Ryzen 3 1300X, but I'm lost as to what else to get.
    I'll just use the free version of W10 so I'm just looking for a build for the rig itself.
    Can anyone help me out/does anyone have any tips for a beginner?
    I'll have a dig around through the forum too.
    Thanks in advance.

    This is a bit over budget, but it's just a guide. It comes in at around €770. You can shop around for the best prices & swap out parts to suit your needs.

    Ram pricing is killer at the moment. You don't need 16gb, but if you get 8gb it's an inevitable upgrade.

    An r3 1200 is better value than the 1300x as it can easily overclock to match it.

    An rx 580 8gb is a good alternate to the gtx 1060 6gb, whichever you can find cheaper.

    The case, hard drive and power supply are just place holders.
