First thing you gotta know, is this shyt is easy.
It may seem daunting at first, but literally anyone can build a PC.
It's nothing like fixing a car or shyt like that.
In fact it's not even like building a PC in the 90's was. That actually took some skill.
But yea, you're gonna have fun, breh.

ehh....@_____ knows how to make cheap builds. I think you should up your budget to 1000 though.:yeshrug:

i5
1060 nvidia gpu (that's the minimum I'd ever go)
8 gb of ram
250gb ssd.
2tb hdd
The name change :banderas:

I only get mentioned successfully about 40% of the time from what I have seen :ahh:

This should put you in the game.

XxPrinceAkeemxX - Saved Part Lists - PCPartPicker

This is similar to what I have now except I have a non-modular PSU which I'll have to upgrade in the future because my cable management is garbage AF.

If you're truly on a budget I would suggest by passing building it yourself. Just finance that bish from ibuypower and get everything you really want. You'll have 12 months to pay it off which is great. APR is like 25%. You should be able to pay off $1,000 to $1,200 off in a year.

Also for the love of god invest in a G-sync display thank me later. :myman:

I can get you an ivy bridge core i5, GTX 1060 build for about $420ish breh.

It all depends on what you are after. I do recommend building around a core i5 6600K and GTX 1060 for $800 though.
