Computer build under 1000€

Hello guys,

I am a video editor and i want to start working with unreal engine to create environments and learn 3D.

I currently use a Macbook Pro 2018 for editing but it is not good enough for the unreal engine.

I need some help choosing computer parts for a desktop. My budget is max 1000€ but i already got the Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse and the Case for the desktop.

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Go to

and configure something like

If you can push it a bit more, then go for an i7 CPU.

( More money on the case makes it easier to work on. Up to 100 ish ).

So i went to a website like that one and built this:

CPU [Intel Core i7-12700K 3.6 GHz 12-Core Processor] $218.95 @ Amazon
CPU Cooler [ARCTIC Alpine 17 CO CPU Cooler] $14.67 @ Amazon

Total $936.55

Is this better or worse than the one you built ?

It looks very similar, I think you’re getting dollars for pounds. IE, parts are cheaper in the US?

It also depends where you’re shipping to, you might end up paying more in taxes…
