Hello all. My sister is looking to build a new PC. I’ve been out of the game for a while now so just want to make sure I’m giving her good advice. She’s built before a while back so I just want to make sure she’s getting her money’s worth this round.

She wants a decent PC for the release of Starfield.

I put this list together below, it’s a little more expensive, but I’m just wondering what we could change that would still be good. I know she’s wanting to stick with Intel, but we’re open to AMD parts if the performance would be similar/better.

Thank you for any advice!

    Looks like a pretty good build to me. Mid-range ryzen and intel chips don’t have a big difference when it comes to speed so the i5-13600K is good. I own the exact same Zotac 3060 Ti and can vouch it’s pretty good. I would personally ditch buying Windows and instead just get Windows 10 for free off Microsoft’s website. You’ll have the “activate windows” watermark but you can get rid of it through other ways. It’s weird to me that some people still buy Windows at full price.
