He is only 12 and his monitor is 1024x768
He is looking to do some gaming and would like to do some minor video editing.
I was thinking about building it around a 750Ti maybe but as his budget is only €350 i don't know where to begin
1. What is your budget? [€350]

Your best bet I reckon is get a second hand desktop and stick a 750ti in it. Something like this?

Would probably get it for below asking, maybe 200, easily get a new 750ti for what's left, or they are occasionally in stock at cex secondhand for 110.0 -
