That's far too much detail for me. When I look at the "PC configurator" I feel like I'm drowning in details. I would need a week to research all those components. CPU is easy (Ryzen 5 3600 seems appropriate), but next comes the motherboard - and I'm already lost. Never mind the 100 different cases and the list goes on and on. I'm also not so sure that whatever components I select really work flawlessly together.

  I run a pc recommender that is basically made for you. Parts that fit together with some optimizing algorithm selecting an optimal configuration for your price point. I changed this configuration a bit manually given your statements: https://www.pc-kombo.com/share/mX6w2675 https://www.pc-kombo.com/share/mX6w2675 This will fit together and is stronger than with a GTX 1050 Ti. If you really want a gpu powered only by the motherboard step down to a GTX 1050, or look at the (rather overpriced) GTX 1650 (though it depends on the model there). Mail is in the profile if you have questions.

      Maybe you hit it during the upgrade there. Works now, as far as I can see.

    Damn... I looked for a PC configurator for several hours two weeks ago and eventually settled for a 3800X. Your site managed to get me a 3900X in my 1200 eur budget (with 64 GB of RAM). Oh well, I will buy another PC in the next six months. Definitely bookmarked!

  I have put together many PCs myself, and honestly many parts aren't that important. Power supply, motherboard, SSD and Ram will "just work", given you buy a recent product from a known brand. The +/- 5% of whatever will not make a difference to most people. For mobo, think of features you must have ( built-in wireless?) And that will direct you.

    Oh please don't do built-in wifi. It's ok to have the adapter inside, but you should put the antennas outside. Include them in the design, if you wish.
