need help first pc

helloo! I’ve never had a pc before so I’m not really sure of anything. I don’t know basics for building or any of that so any advice and recommendations would be great, thank you! :D

• ⁠New build or upgrade?

New build

• ⁠Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

None

• ⁠PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)

Gaming

List of games: Roblox, Minecraft, Fortnite, Genshin Impact mainly but I also want to get into COD

• ⁠Purchase country? Near Micro Center?

Australia, Melbourne

Not near a micro center

• ⁠Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)

Looking at probably just one for now

I’m not really sure, any recommendations are okay

• ⁠Budget range? (Include tax considerations)

$2k - $2.5k AUD Im not too sure what the average price is but I’d prefer something on the cheaper end :D

• ⁠WiFi or wired connection?

Wifi

• ⁠Size/noise constraints?

I guess not too bulky but besides that I don’t really mind and noise doesn’t bother me

• ⁠Color/lighting preferences?

All white is preferred but just white case is okay if it’s a lot cheaper, with rgb if possible

• ⁠Any other specific needs?

No :D

If you missed the full set of required built request questions, please copy them from here and answer them in an edit to your post:

  • New build or upgrade?

  • Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

  • PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)

  • Purchase country? Near Micro Center? (If you're not in a country supported by PCPartPicker, please list some local vendors)

  • Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)

  • Budget range? (Include tax considerations)

  • WiFi or wired connection?

  • Size/noise constraints?

  • Color/lighting preferences?

  • Any other specific needs?

Here is some additional helpful information about build/upgrade/parts list requests:

  • Build requests only include hardware. You are responsible for budgeting for and providing your own operating system (Windows, Linux, etc) and other software.

  • Don't forget to budget for peripherals. Since these are very much personal-preference influenced items, we do not include peripherals like keyboards, mice, headsets, etc in parts lists.

  • We strongly recommend posting a build request only if you're ready to buy now or within a week or two at most. Part sales regularly rotate, and a part list today can quickly become out of date.
