I'm looking to build my first gaming PC and have a budget between $600 and $800. I'm not concerned about the aesthetics—performance is my main focus. I live in Sweden, and while I'm aiming to stick to my budget, I'm open to spending a little extra if necessary. I already have everything else I need, so I just need guidance on the PC components.

We need to know if you're starting from scratch with everything or if you already have a monitor, keyboard, etc. If you're starting from zero, the budget will definitely change. I recommend a 12th or 14th gen i5 with a stock cooler paired with a mid-range AMD GPU for solid gaming performance!
You might want to start with an AM5 build, and check out Proshop—they often have good deals. If you can stretch your budget a bit, that could help you get better parts. Just make sure to double-check prices!

That sounds good! I might need to adjust my budget then.
