Hi all, I'm looking to get a new PC as my 7 year old one has become extremely slow. I'm a casual gamer and play mostly paradox strategy games and I don't care about the graphics settings too much. Probably the most demanding game I have currently is M&B Bannerlord. A PC that stays relatively fast (not necessarily powerful) and lasts a long time with maybe a graphics card upgrade at some point would be ideal.
This is what I've picked after a bit of research although I'm no expert unfortunately. I'd greatly appreciate some advice and just a look over to make sure I haven't made any large oversights with this configuration.
