Hi guys, a friend of fine asked if i could make him a build for his new pc, something small so he can move it around easily and not expensive, so he could have a work pc on which he could play some games (he usually play not demanding games like cs2, but he may play some heavier games from time to time) Im super out of the loop for pc's since i build mine 6 years ago some im asking some advice. I'd tend to to go with AMD both for CPU and GPU, but im open to any advice. Thank you very much!

Thank you very much :) i would go a bit higher with the hardware so he could have some more flexibility on the games he could play (and a bit more fps on cs2 haha) and also so the build could be a bit future proof. Do you think it could be upgraded easily in case of need? Or the case is too smal to fit gpu's?

The case is really small to fit a proper gpu, but there are some frankstein builds with it and they can attach even high end ones.

But you need the gpu, the case, the new psu... Easily another 500€ on top. And you will loose the easy transportation.

For the ram and the HD, yeah, they are easily accessible and upgradeable.

Honestly, I think right now this is the sweet spot for the money.
