Question Advice for a new build

[grf00004]

Hi, I am buying a tower pc for my gamer boyfriend. He has shown a lot of interest in getting into pc gaming but we haven’t been able to afford anything for a while. I currently have around £1000 saved and want to buy a gaming pc for his Xmas. Any recommendations? I did have a look at this:

PCSPECIALIST Icon 240 Gaming PC - AMD Ryzen 5, RTX 3060, 1 TB SSD​

No idea what the power supply is but that's not a bad deal tbh.

Thanks. The fact it had no reviews was putting me off. The list you sent is that what you would recommend for building his own?

That build includes a solid power supply, 32GB of RAM, decent cpu cooler and SSD, case with good airflow. The 120mm fan goes inside the back of that case for a rear exhaust fan.
