Hey everyone! After a lifetime of gaming on consoles, I've finally decided to make the switch to PC since my PS4 seems to be losing its touch. But here's the catch: I know absolutely nothing about PCs! I'm looking for something simple that I can use to chat with friends and watch videos on. I was considering a prebuilt setup since my technical skills are pretty much nonexistent.
I'd really appreciate any help or advice you can provide! Thanks!

I found a nice prebuilt from Shark Gaming for NOK 9,499 (about $938 USD). It’s a solid option if you want to avoid the hassle of building. Just check the specs to see if it meets your needs!
If you're feeling adventurous, try watching some PC building videos on YouTube! It’s a rewarding experience, almost like building Legos but with tech. It’ll help you understand what goes into a good build, and honestly, if I can do it, anyone can!
Yeah, those videos always confuse me with technical jargon! I’m really more of a ‘how do I even open the box’ kind of person haha.
Check this out for some good starting points: [PCPartPicker Guide](https://no.pcpartpicker.com/guide/). It'll help you get familiar with the parts and pricing. Don’t worry, you’ll get the hang of the terms!
Thanks for the link! Now I just need to learn a whole new vocabulary, lol.
First things first, what's your budget and where are you located? That'll help narrow down some options and where to buy. It sounds like you're in Norway, right?
Yes, I live in Norway! My budget is around 12,000 NOK, which is about $1,200 USD. I'm thinking of buying online or maybe from a small electronics shop.
That sounds promising! Quick question: How can I find out how many gigabytes it has? I can’t seem to spot that information.
