Nope, will give it a look now.. so out of the loop on these things I think I may need to downgrade my nerd status..

I think we are all suffering from that a bit. Finally got to drooling over component lists myself. Despite everything I have some money I need to spend.
At 1080P it doesn't seem to matter too much what graphics you have, 1060 is fine. My temptation would be to go for a Ryzen 2600X gen2 which would blow your budget.
Binary Shadow:
I don't think you can directly compare the intel/amd chips like that but the amd is usually more bang for buck.
the 500 budget was really tight
Clock'd 0Ne:
Keep your eye on www.hotukdeals.com too as often some real hardware bargains come up, especially on HDDs.
XEntity:
Cheers all, will put a few alerts on HUKD.. and spend a bit of time looking at some reviews and getting up to speed.. but PCPartPicker has helped greatly and gives me a decent idea of where to be looking!
If 500 is tight I would spend a bit more if the jump was worth it..
matt5cott:
It's worth noting that the Ryzen onboard graphics are fairly competent, even last years 2200/2400 were surprisingly good -> https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2018-ryzen-3-2200-g-ryzen-5-2400g-review
