In Italy I am searching for a gaming PC within a €300 budget.
I frequently encounter these deals from private sellers:
1) Huananzhi X99-QD4 + Intel Xeon E5 2680 + RX 5800 8GB + 32GB 2400MHz RAM + Windows 10.
2) Asus M3A78-CM + AMD Phenom II X6 1090T + GTX 1660 6GB + 8GB DDR2 RAM.
3) Asus ROG B350F + Ryzen 5 1600 + GTX 1060 6GB + Corsair 16GB 3000MHz RAM + Cooler Master Tuf 650w PSU + 750GB HDD.
4) i5-8500 + 5500 XT 8GB + 16GB 2666MHz RAM + 256GB NVMe SSD + 1TB HDD + 700w PSU.

With a bit more (50-100€ extra, around €350-400), I often find similar machines but with GTX1660 (TI or Super) and sometimes i5-10th gen.
The games I play are Bannerlord 2, Total War, and I sometimes shooters like Battlefield 1, requiring 500-1000 entities on the field at once.

Which option fits best? Which should I avoid? Is it worth spending a bit more for a 1660 Super?
I have a limited budget.

I think the third choice is best since you can still upgrade the CPU to a Zen 3 CPU later.
