Thank you so much! Do you know if any of these are good? https://www.komplett.se/product/1213662/gaming/gamingdator/gamingdator-stationar/komplett-i26-core-gaming-pack
Because I need all the setup (screen, mouse, keyboard, headset) which I didn't think of😅
@RoseFinn12 I would definitely not get the first one. Its processor is fine for now but not the kind you'd count on to keep up with newer games (or a newer graphics card) down the line. The graphics card is also not a great option. The second one is better, but it's still not the kind of system I'd start with if I wanted to upgrade in the future.
There's no reason you need to buy a bundle, and in fact it's usually not a good idea to do so. The bundle price might look good, but the monitor will typically be a model that's not selling well, and the mouse and keyboard (and anything else included) might have the same issue or be low quality overall. I would strongly recommend buying the peripherals separately so you get exactly what you want. A bad mouse can be very distracting, a bad keyboard can be miserable to type on, and a headset that doesn't sound the way you want is such a disappointment.

Okay, is it cheaper building your own or is it better to go for a premade one?

@RoseFinn12 As I mentioned before, it's always cheaper to get a prebuilt model from a company that uses low-end components. The problem there, or one of them, is that you don't have a proper upgrade path. So while the system might be fine now, installing a new graphics card could require a new power supply and maybe a new processor, depending on the card you're adding.
So then the question is what your priorities are: to save money and get a system that's good enough now, or to have a computer that will last through an upgrade cycle or two? I would personally go with the latter, especially if I were planning to play a game that didn't yet have minimum or recommended requirements. But reasonable people can disagree, and you may prefer to get something cheap now and buy a new computer in three or four years.
