make sure to try and buy a graphics card if you plan to be gaming.
I need help picking what parts to get because I have never built a pc. This laptop that I am on has a integrated card which is trash. My budget is $1000, I would like to spend only $800 or 900 because I want to buy games. I want to run all the high end games currently and at least 5 years in the future.
And where do I buy the parts, online or store?

I recommend you read the threads here:

Online is better, maybe you could get a "refund" and build a better pc with the money.
Good luck bro.
buy windows on MPGH
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Combo...=Combo.3468060 <MB CPU RAM
Pick an RX 580 of choice, all are similarly prices around $210-240
Pick a case you like and a decent PSU
and get a hyper 212
computers are outdated, fidget spinners are the future.

I mean only 96.70 dollars cheaper, but I did upgrade the ssd to m.2 for better speeds, but it's not necessary at all.
Lmk if you have questions.
Most parts I listed can be swapped for similar ones, these are more of just starting guides.
Just realized you said high end games now and also five years in the future, you might want to get at least a gtx 1070. 1060 might be pushing it to the limit.

I like the second build, gtx 1060 6gb is really good for me because I can upgrade it when needed in like 3 years when it gets outdated, 3TB of storage is too much, and my only concern is with the micro-atx motherboard. ( I dont know shit about motherboards) will micro atx be similar to an atx motherboard or will their be a significant different performance.

@GoldenPotato
Micro is a smaller form factor of standard atx. You're not losing much, especially if you don't plan on putting in two graphics cards. Idk how much storage you'd need so I just put what I had, and I'm about to run out of space too. Tbh I am using it as a media server as well.
You'll save space and money with a smaller board. If you go with micro you won't lose that many features either.

No, my point was the ONLY worthwhile Intel CPUs worth buying at the moment are the 7700ks and G4560. There is simply no reason for for anyone to buy i5s because Ryzen is simply better for most applications and is more future proof. While the RAM frequency doesn't really matter for Intel CPUs, it actually matters quite a bit on Ryzen CPUs. You can look this up if you'd like.
TIL, gonna go look this up. (Memory being important)
And every processor is worth something.
Ryzen isn't really more future proof, in fact it might be less. Yea it's got a bigger core count and far better multithreaded performance, it still has worse single core performance, which is more important in today's world, especially in gaming. There isn't enough push to warrant swapping speed for cores yet.

Well I looked up the frequency thing, and yep, you're right. Neat. Although his graphics card might bottleneck it before his memory frequency does. The tests I saw were with a 1080.
