I’m on a $1,500 budget - Help me purchase my first gaming PC

[JEMC]

Since you have a budget in mind, the biggest questions that will decides the parts of your build are:1) Will you use the PC for something else other than gaming? 2) What is the resolution/refresh rate of your monitor? Or is that also part of your build?

In any case, since you want a computer that can be used for a long time with the option to be upgraded, your only course of action right now is going with an AMD AM5 motherboard and CPU.
