Is this a good setup for the price? This is somewhere in Europe. A tech shop that allows you to choose your hardware and they assemble it for you.

I mainly want to play older and indie games on it. Some video editing as well, possibly. Current rig is a crappy pre-built which overheats like crazy, practically impossible to do any gaming on it. TIA for any answers.

See if you can find someone to build it for you on a work-for-hire type of site. There're tons of people who build their own PCs. If you can find someone who doesn't oversell their skills and is competent, I bet you could have it built for a third of that markup.

I just went and added all the parts to the cart and it seems they are charging around 100 € for the build. So not 300-400 € like Telorand estimated. These are Scandinavian, not US prices.
