Hi All,
I've been hit up by a friend of mine who wants to try and build a solid gaming PC in preparation for Baldur's Gate 3 (but also to play some older and other games - won't be playing anything cutting edge at the initial stages). My friend doesn't have a massive budget so I've basically been tasked to try and put together a listing of parts for him and then put this rig together for him. I haven't put together a mid-range PC for quite some time so I'm not really fully across all of the hardware in that range. I would welcome any recommendations on parts and optimal configurations. If it helps, we're located in Sydney, Australia and his budget would have to be sub $1000AUD. My friend is pretty adamant on getting stuff locally in AU for warranty purposes etc. He's kind of funny like that. PC would also just need to be capable of solid 1080p gaming. No 1440p or 4K stuff for this one.
If you need me to provide any further information or answer any questions, just post and I'll reply.
Cheers to anyone who posts/provides advice.
