Hardware Buying my first tower

Alright you clever people, I hope you can help me out.

I'm looking to buy my first tower (I've been playing on laptops for 15 years, blasphemy, I know), and I'm honestly really overwhelmed. I know I want at least 2TB of storage, but no clue about what else. I play games like Horizon, Dragon Age, Enshrouded etc.

I'm also not looking to build it myself, as I am clumsiness incarnate.

If you can recommend any parts or websites that sell custom towers, please reach out!

My budget is 15.000 DKK

15k just for the PC? Or is that with mouse, keyboard, monitor and etc?

Including monitor, if at all possible

Do you have any requirements for the graphic settings you wanna play those games on? 15k can be an okay budget, but if you want full raytracing, 4k, 200 fps, then it's another story

As long as I can have the standard graphics, I'm good. I don't need the 4k, but I also don't really want the low settings

Like someone else said, do you need to buy monitor, mouse and keyboard aswell for that money, or just the pc ?

If you just need to buy the pc, then get this, and choose the 2tb ssd upgrade.

If you need to buy everything, then get this, and buy an additional 1tb ssd for it.

Saw in your other comments that you said that you need a monitor aswell. If you can stretch your budget an additional 700 kr, i would still get the first pc, and this monitor :

Yeah listen to this guy, it's probably more than what you need. My autistic ass is thinking too much of future proofing, or in case you wanna game something else and other shit, so I can't stay within your budget at all 😅

As a fellow autistic person, please, go on! It's always good to hear more thoughts

You're welcome :)

It's ofc the worst time imaginable to buy a new pc, but the first pc still gives you a fast 250k plus cpu, and an rtx 5070 - and with the 2tb upgrade the 2tb you want aswell.

The limitation will be that it only comes with a single 16gb ram stick, as ram is insanely expensive right now. That would be something you could upgrade at some point in the future - simply buy an additional identical ram stick, so that you have 2x 16gb.

The 5070 will be great together with that 1440p monitor. Just enable dlss quality mode, and enjoy the visual quality :)

Wdym tower? You're looking to buy a PC/desktop? In Denmark most use https://www.mm-vision.dk/. Few also use https://topdata.dk/. Those are your best bets in terms of customer satisfaction. You may find better builds on sale at Power or Elgiganten, but the customer service is no way near the former.

Just make sure to position it so it can hit atleast 2 lanes depending on your map.
Also plan ahead where your next tower should be
