You can reuse your case/PSU and older hard drives using just RAM/MBA/CPU for about $200. I’d add around $50 for a small SSD to run the OS or a 1-2TB 7200RPM HDD. For a complete build, it could cost roughly $350 if you rely on the built-in graphics on the 2200G.
Purchase the first item, then acquire another RAM stick and a new HDD. Install the new components, set up Windows, operate the PC, and prepare funds for the GTX 1060.
Sounds like a solid plan. The HD6770 should work well for Fortnite, and you can move up to a 1060 if you need more performance for real games.
I understand the situation, I chose a hybrid setup but it might offer the best value for his budget. Here’s the part list: PCPartPicker link.
