Hi everyone I hope u doing great,
I'm trying to put together new PC(mid tower) for my nephew I have budget of £800 he plays fortnight in 1080 I'm hoping for your help again.
 
Shopping smartly you probably could get the am5 spec within budget.

The am4 platform isn't actually much cheaper, going for an am4 processor that's better than the 5600 pushes it into am5 territory and at that point you be better off going am5.

There is intel available I tried to spec an intel system but would only get you a raptor lake i3, before the price of CPU went too high and the am5 system would be imo be better performance for less cost.

My basket at OcUK:

Total: £777.91 (includes delivery: £0.00)​
 
A couple of Intel builds. I prefer the 7600 XT 16GB, but £350 is too much to pay for one and it downgrades the CPU.

My basket at OcUK:

Total: £778.92 (includes delivery: £11.98)​

My basket at OcUK:

Total: £812.90 (includes delivery: £11.98)​
(Use of CPU's box coolers assumed)

@Tetras could you recommend any other graphic card then Sapphire Radeon RX 7600 XT Gaming OC 16GB GDDR6 as it's only pre-order and most other places are out of stuck
Any reasonably priced 7600 XT 16GB will do. The options aren't great at this price (around £300) I'm afraid, which is maybe why they sold out.

Alternatively: you could look at an Arc A770 16GB, but I have no idea what the drivers are like with Fortnite.
