Birthday gift for my nephew.

My brother asked for my help with building a gaming PC for his son who will be 12 years old in July 2021.

The budget was 1000eur.
I had time to plan my purchases so I waited for special deals and discounts.
I managed to get a PSU, SSD, RAM and motherboard for a slightly better price than originally planned.
I added 4x 120mm (2x intake + 2x exhaust) HD120 RGB fans from Corsair from one of my old builds.

The GPU was another story but it ended well.
I ordered a 1660ti (370eur inc tax) in February and after waiting 3 months I was notified that it had expired.
I spoke (and complained) with the store and they offered me a 2060 with 15% discount (440eur inc tax). And in these times it feels like a good deal.
