The build concept
With €500 you get a solid 1080p PC: the AM4 platform (Ryzen 5 5600 + DDR4) keeps the budget in check while the GPU gets the biggest share of funds.
The price of each part below is live from the Kosovo stores tracked by pjespjes.com — the list changes with current offers. Open the builder to verify full compatibility.

How to save more
Reuse the case and PSU from an old PC if they are in good shape — you save €60–100 right away. Follow the deals page for drops and set price alerts on the parts you want.
Do not downgrade PSU or storage quality to save €10 — those two parts protect your investment.
