The price of 2600 in Greece can vary, but it typically ranges around €2,500 to €3,000 depending on the retailer and currency conversion. For your GPU choice, a 1050 Ti is decent for most games, though higher-end options like the 1080 Ti or 1440 Ti will offer better performance.

The price was 120 here, and I was considering getting a 1050 Ti.

I also considered purchasing something around 2200g and then upgrading later once I finish school, since I expect more time afterward.

Typically, games won't notice much improvement from the 2600 to the 2200g version—perhaps only a 10-15 FPS boost at most, and it might cost about half as much. The gap could shrink even more if you push the 2200g a bit higher.

Are you using a dedicated GPU? You might want to look into a Ryzen 5 1400 or 1600—they’re very affordable now and provide 4c/8t, 6c/12t performance versus just 4c/4t with the 2200g. They can also be overclocked. The 2200g remains a great budget CPU, particularly for light gaming when paired with the IGPU.

Thank you! I'll take the 1400 option, which adds just 10 euros, subject to availability.

For dGPUs, ignore any G options. If purchasing a GPU, avoid the 1050ti and opt for an RX 570 or an 1650ti, provided they're affordable.

Consider the price difference and your needs before deciding. If you prioritize performance, the RX 570 might be worth the extra 25 euros; otherwise, the 1650 could be a better value.
