    @JoBing1689  I'd be happy to help you pick something out when you're ready to buy.  Feel free to link the stores where you're willing to shop; the language barrier isn't really a problem.  I would however like to wait until you're actually going to buy something to search the sites—prices and inventory can change quickly, and there's no point in my recommending something that will be 200€ more expensive, or not available at all, by the time you're ready.

    If you'd like me to list the hardware to look for so you can do your own shopping, that's fine too.  Just let me know.

    I don't think you need to spend 1500€, although it's been a while since I checked prices in Finland.  1000€ is doable, maybe 1200€ if you want a bit of an upgrade over the basic gaming PC.  I can take a quick look around if you like.

JoBing1689​  Sorry for the late-ish reply.  Do you want specific recommendations, or a list of components to look for in doing your own shopping?  And are you ready to buy now, or would you prefer to wait until the money has actually arrived, if it hasn't yet?

If you'd like suggestions for what to buy, please link me the websites for any stores where you'd be willing to shop.  I don't know what's trustworthy in Finland overall, let alone what meets your standards.  The language barrier isn't a problem since the important details are easy to pick out.

If you're not ready to buy yet, I can still list what hardware to consider when making a purchase.  But it would be better to wait to choose a specific computer until you're about to make the purchase because prices and stock can change very quickly.  The "best" system right now might cost 200€ more in a couple weeks, and meanwhile there might be something new or newly on sale that's cheaper or better.
