I'm in Italy and have a total budget of about €600 for a gaming PC. I already have a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. I'd like to play demanding games such as Red Dead Redemption 2 at around 60 FPS, although 30 FPS would be acceptable if necessary. I understand the basic parts of a PC, but I'm unsure how graphics cards compare—for example, an RTX 3080 versus an RTX 4070—and I'm open to buying used components if that makes the budget work.

A Ryzen 5 5600 paired with a used Radeon RX 6700 XT would be a strong target for this budget. Add an inexpensive B550 motherboard, 16 GB of RAM, a reasonably priced SSD, and a reliable 550–650 W 80+ Bronze power supply. The 5600’s stock cooler is adequate, and you can use a basic case. Depending on Italian prices, you may need to buy the GPU or some other parts used to stay near €600.
Before choosing parts, check current Italian prices and whether the €600 includes the graphics card and the rest of the system. Used-market listings can make a big difference, especially for the GPU. A price-performance comparison site can help you compare cards by benchmark results instead of relying only on model numbers.
Since you already have the peripherals, a console is not necessarily the only option, but a €600 PC will require realistic expectations. A balanced system with a midrange Radeon card should handle RDR2 at 1080p with adjusted settings, while newer high-end GPUs like the RTX 3080 or 4070 would consume too much of the budget on their own.
