    Hmm let’s see…

    • Mobo - some B650 - 100 EUR
    • CPU - Ryzen 8700G - 250 EUR
    • RAM - 16G - 200 EUR
    • PSU + Case + Mouse + Keyboard - 150 EUR
    • SSD 1 Tb 150 EUR

    Total 850 EUR and you are left with 150-200 for games or hdd or rainbow cables if you are into that stuff.

    Needless to say SSD and RAM prices suck.

    Note: $1000 + 20% VAT is roughly 1050 EUR

      PSU + case + mouse + keyboard - 150 EUR

      That means you’re leaving like 60-70 for a case + mouse + keyboard if you get even a moderately good PSU (which you should, because fuck having a shit PSU kill other components). It’s a bit tight IMO.

      Also this leaves you with no dedicated GPU, meaning the gaming experience will be far inferior to a console. It will of course be more useful in everything else.

        Nope, you roll with iGPU.

        I actually have the same igpu as is in 8700G in my laptop (ryzen 7840U), probably somewhat nerfed as it’s a mobile cpu. To be honest I did not expect that I will be playing Diablo 4 on it.

        But sure, you can squeeze in a GPU if you cheap out on some other stuff or buy used parts. Like the laptop I mentioned above - used HP Elitebook for about €750. Hands down the cheapest a the best laptop I ever bought. And "unfortunately " far more gaming capable than I thought.
