I am considering purchasing a gaming PC.
What are your thoughts on this?
My maximum budget is €1300, and I need to include everything (mouse, keyboard, display).
I found this option: the parts are more costly.
I’m unsure between AMD and Intel.
I’ve always used Intel and NVIDIA, but I’ve heard Ryzen is excellent too.

Ryzen offers better value overall after Intel's challenges. I wouldn't invest in Intel because stores are clearing inventory that no one else wants. I saw the HR as a site extension—are you based in Croatia? If the only info available is the linked build, consider choosing a non-F SKU i5, as the iGPU will be useful for display problems. The motherboard model isn't specified, but an H610 chipset suggests lower performance potential. The RAM details aren't provided either. It doesn't mention the SSD or PSU in your setup. In short, you're spending more than necessary. I recommend building from scratch and using PCPartPicker to find the nearest European country, as Croatia isn't listed in the drop menu (top right corner). These parts are more costly overall. Pay once and ensure your build is correct instead of fixing someone else's error.

Hello, Croatia.
I handle PC repairs, mobile phones too, and other tasks—this is more of a side gig or free time job. I haven’t played much gaming in a while; my last one was on a laptop with an RTX 2060 and an i7-10750H. My last AMD upgrade was over ten years ago, so I haven’t used AMD since then.
My budget is around 1300€ for everything.
What would you suggest for this amount?
I’m looking for something like 16/32GB RAM, 1TB storage—could be SSD or HDD, or just SSD.
Do you recommend using an AMD processor or GeForce for the GPU?

Also checking i5-12400f versus Ryzen 7 5700x or 5800x, benchmarks seem similar. Not sure what to think. Thanks ahead.

Hello, thanks for reaching out. I need to review it.
I’m thinking about purchasing something here if I decide to pay monthly in installments—like 500 over 5 months.
Regarding the CPU, would an i5-14th gen or Ryzen Gen4/5 be suitable?
For the GPU, I saw a RTX 4060 with 16GB RAM; should I opt for an AMD RX 6750 XT or something more powerful from AMD?
In short, which brands are best—AMD, Intel, or both?
Also, what about GeForce cards?

The 8500G matches the Ryzen 7600. With the listed motherboard, you can upgrade to the Ryzen 9000 series or higher if desired. I recommend sticking with AM5 for long-term use.
I don’t think the 13th or 14th generation i5 CPUs are worth it right now. You could consider getting the 12400 now and upgrading later to Intel Bartlett Lake next year.
The price of the 6750XT is around 200 Euros? If it’s about 275 Euros, that seems like a good deal.

Consider the alternative of purchasing an RTX 4060 with 16GB instead of a 3060.

What issues exist with the 13th and 14th generation Intel processors?
If I purchase a 12th generation chip, I now see that in the 15th generation it will have a new socket, making it incompatible.
Regarding the GPU, should I opt for a RX 3060/4060/4060TI or 4070?
Or should I consider an AMD option?
