I´ll be cheaper to get a custom build from a shop than buying a prebuilt one in any shop, as they´ll easily charge you 200-300€ more for nothing. Most people will tell you to get nvidia because "amd drivers suck" but that´s not been the case in the past 2 years :) P.S.: either a GTX1060 or RX480 are more than enough to run this game, as it is mainly CPU bound, not GPU. Some of them will even include a copy of Windows for free :) (just take Win10, I hated it initially but better get used to the bad stuff quicker, before they just force it down your throat) If you can´t build it yourself, most shops will do it for you in exchange of a 50€ fee or so. ram speeds don´t really matter on intel (at all, and they higher speed you take, the more expensive it gets), unless you´re going with AMD´s Ryzen. You say you don´t have time to build one yourself, so you probably don´t need a processor with the K, contrarely to what another comment said. Screen-wise, any 60hz 1080p screen is good enough, and you can find pretty good ones for around 120€ (I have both a Samsung and Acer one, both excellent).
If you can get a Sandisk 480gb SSD, you´ll have more than enough for now, and you can always upgrade in a year or two if need be. Get a 1tb hdd for random stuff (7200 rpm, I recommend Toshiba personally, but most people will take Western Digital or Seagate) and invest all the rest in an SSD. I5 6500 with an EVO cooler, 16gb of 2133 ddr4 ram (I recommend LPX Vengeance), RX480 4/8gb (Sapphire is a good model), 550W power supply (Corsair has very realible ones), random 100€ motherboard (gigabyte has some of the best ones) and a 50€ case are more than enough for this game. I would hate to see you come back on upset at wasting money, if you're not sure, seek some advice, most independant shops will check specs for you. I was in PC world in Mcr at the weekend, and none of their towers or laptops would have run TSW with ease. Remeber most of the shelf laptops are multi media machines built for business, not gaming. Get the advice on wether it can run it first. All of which are great, but if the processor is low, it's over before it starts, meaning you'll have blown your money. A lot of people fall into the trap of graphics cards, 6GB of ram and 500HDD. Which I'm currently doing today on Win7 machine that is only 2.0Ghz. Anything lower than that and you will need to run it window'd.
Remember Train Sim needs a min of 2.53ghz to run full screen with the wearther off. But! You might be able to get a decent one second hand for half your budget. Do you want to run Train Sim World on the same machine? If you do, you're going to need a top end product. Do yourself a favour, print off the specs and take them into a specialist shop.
