Hi, I'm planning to assemble a PC using parts I already own. The case is a Fractal Meshify 2xl black with a dark TPU and a Corsair RMA850X GPU. The motherboard should be PCIe 4.0 for future M.2 upgrades, ideally supporting multiple M.2 slots. Since I'm in Europe, I need at least one 2TB M.2 drive. I prefer compact boards with just one M.2 port, not the smaller ones. I'm considering an AMD CPU for better value and decent performance, but I want something that balances cost and speed. I'm not sure if buying now in September 2023 makes sense, but maybe next year prices will rise higher. I'd rather get a good setup at a lower price than chase overclocked high-end gear. If you need more details, just let me know. Thanks!
Europe refers to a continent in the Northern Hemisphere, including countries like Spain, France, Germany, and many others.
Considering savings in euros, this might be a good choice mainly for gaming https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/gy9K34
For a 2060 Super, 5600 or 12400 are suitable options with moderate power usage. The key challenge lies in choosing between DDR5 or AM5/DDR5, which would increase costs.

Considering shipping costs between EU countries, it might be better to purchase each part from different online stores to potentially secure the lowest overall price. Alternatively, you could ask if buying everything from a single supplier would be more cost-effective. Let me know your thoughts.
