Hi I’m looking to do two separate builds for gaming .

Budget 1 Build : $1000

Budget 2 Build : $1500

Before you ask , these are for two separate individuals & peripherals are separate from the build.


Build 1 , I’m looking to have it be able to play games at a consistent frame rate. Games like Fortnite call of duty etc

Build 2 , I’m looking to have it be able to play games at a high rate , Battlefield , CoD , Racing Sim , the pc would also need to be able to edit videos

Build 1: (Let's face it, you're not getting a good graphics card for $300, otherwise it would be a pretty solid build for $1k)

For the $1000 build, even if it’s 1100 or 1200 that’s fine as I don’t see a graphics card.

For the $1000 build, even if it’s 1100 or 1200 that’s fine as I don’t see a graphics card.

The 5600G comes with integrated graphics.
Here's the thing, if you spend $500 on a graphics card now, you're getting a pretty low end card.
For $1200, your best bet is to go with a prebuilt that has a Ryzen 5 5600x and something like a 6600XT if you can find one.
Something like this for example:

It has a 3600 CPU, but that's still plenty for what you need.
