    Hi everyone, completely new to PC building and was browsing this Forum.
    I was using an old laptop for gaming but its specs are not up to standard and overheating problems.


    1. What is your budget? ~€1000
    2. What will be the main purpose of the computer? Gaming -Specifically CPU Heavy - an STR of at least 2000 or so?
    3. Do you need a copy of Windows? No, unless needed?
    4. Can you use any parts from an old pc? No
    5. Do you need a monitor? Yes
    6. Do you need any of these peripherals? Should be okay for now, can upgrade as he goes.
    7. Are you willing to try overclocking? Yes
    8. How can you pay? Any
    9. When are you purchasing? Sooner the better.

    Thank you for any and all help.
