Hey guys, my brother wants a new gaming pc and his budget is 1000 euros.
I'm using pc specialist, could you guys try to build a pc on the website and place a screenshot of the build here.
I have no idea what Im doing so thats why I ask.
Thanks!

Why not pcpartpicker?
Well, I never built a pc myself before and Pcspecialist has a nice warranty system.
But if you guys have better sites for this Id really want to know.
Oh and I live in Belgium so a cheap german site or something would be alright too.
I've had a go at making a list from the website, but the selection of parts is terrible. I'd strongly suggest going for one off pcpartpicker as JC2Gamer said. If thats not possible i'll send you a list but don't expect it to be as powerful as one from pcpartpicker.
If you could send me the list, I'll try pcpartspicker but I have no clue what's compatible with what.

Its an onboard sound card :P and he has 1000 euros to spend, not 1000 pounds, so £791 ish.
On another note, isn't the ram really overpriced on your list?

Not necessarily. Can I get cheaper RAM? Of course, but I wouldn't trust the brand.
What you had listed was an internal soundcard that utilizes a PCI slot. It's not needed as it provides no difference whatsoever.

I only really trust Corsair but thats just me.

But its free :P - and tbh we both know a build off pcpartpicker will outclass one from any shop (99% of the time)
Thanks guys really helping me out! My brother has a gtx 570 gpu we could use, is that one still good for gaming?

It's getting on a bit, but if you don't mind lowering some settings it is still pretty powerful.

It wasn't a PCI card. It's a standard image for all sound cards. Look at the LAN section as well.

Ahh. All I saw was Soundcard and a picture of a PCI soundcard.
