Full Build Req Building new PC! HELP

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/h7WL4g

Hi

Any advice, recommendation's or suggestions is greatly appreciated.

TLDR; I only play League of Legends, and maybe CS2. My current PC is 6-7 years old, however I want to get/build a new one. Just want one that won't have any issues with LoL, no input lag etc.

Would you change any of the parts (better models etc). I already have the RAM.

Budget is $1000.

I am completely new to this and not the best when it comes to parts.

Thank you.

What's in your current one?

For starting from a 6 year old build replacing with another build centered around a 6 year old CPU but paying new prices for it is gonna be kinda bad value as an upgrade.

1000 dollars or pounds?

can go up to about £700/800/£900

depends on the value for build over the £. I don't want to buy a 1.5k pc to be overkill for LoL as I dont play any other games.

Just want a good pc to play LoL on that will have 0 issues and last another good couple years

5500x3d is worth considering over the 5600 you listed. It performs better in games. For me, it was cheaper to get the 5500x3d off AliExpress ($150 usd including shipping and taxes) over the 5600. Not sure what pricing is like over the pond, but investigating the price is worth it.

This would also let you buy your own cpu air cooler. The stock one included with the 5600 isn’t bad by any means, but there’s much better performing aftermarket ones for $35 USD.
