    Hi all, trying to help a nephew build a gaming PC. Mainly for CoD Warzone/Fortnite.

    Have tried to do a build up for him but I'm bad at budgeting and finding the best available for the money he has.

    Would be very appreciative of any help.

    1. What is your budget? €800

    2. What will be the main purpose of the computer? Gaming - Call of duty Warzone/ Fortnite.

    3. Do you need a copy of Windows? Yes, probably windows 10.

    4. Can you use any parts from an old computer? No

    5. Do you need a monitor? No one has been bought for him. https://www.harveynorman.ie/computing/computer-accessories/lcd-monitors/lenovo-27-full-hd-led-gaming-monitor-65e0kac1uk.html

    5a. If yes, what size do you need. N/A

    5b. If no, what resolution is your current monitor and do you plan to upgrade in the near future? The above Lenovo monitor was bought for him as a surprise birthday present. Doubt he'll be able to upgrade from it for a while.

    6. Do you need any of these peripherals? No, again speakers and mouse/keyboard were bought as well.

    7. Are you willing to try overclocking? Probably not.

    8. How can you pay? Card/Bank transfer.

    9. When are you purchasing? Think he wants it relatively soon.

    10. If you need help building it, where are you based? Should be ok with the build.

    Thanks for any help.
