Need build help for friend

[alxlwson]

Guy wants to play Seven Deadly Sins and PUBG. Wants to be upgradeable over time.
Also doesn't want to spend much more then $500. He's wanting 1080p60+. Needs everything but a monitor.

I've never once built a budget system and I'm not familiar with either game, so I'm kind of at a loss on this one.


Please help!

Ryzen 5 1600-AF/GTX 1650 Super would do him just fine. 6 core/12 thread CPU. PUBG will run at 1080p 60FPS with most settings on high.

Couple notes: I chose the B450/AC motherboard with integrated WLAN, but if he already has a WiFi card you can get this version and save $10. The GPU and PSU have a $10 and $20 rebate respectively, so it comes to a total $540 before rebates.
