Thought this was a fun build for around $1000. Not the cheapest, but has room to grow

Not the cheapest, But would be a great upgrading path and allows for 60+FPS in any AAA game.

I would love to use a PC like this to play Elden Ring :) Unfortunately my current card and processor are not strong enough to play it, even though I already bought a copy haha
Could be pretty sweet to build this.
I run a small stream team. I edit videos for them and all i need is a new Gpu. Im currently rocking a 1050ti since i built my pc and upgraded from a dell optiplex. parts in this build was made using things my brother and misses have in their setups. https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=44aebfbc-bf1c-4960-bfee-107e56c4421f

Well since we are all dreaming, here is my ideal set up. Who knows, maybe dreams can come true. But this would do me good for a couple of years.

Building this to update my 9 year old machine that has been a workhorse for audio and video production, with gaming and streaming being a side hobby. Looking at getting up to date to keep up with the advancing software that is coming out. Getting a decent graphics card has been hard because of stock and, more so, price. Other components were chosen because the motherboard has copious USB ports, RAM will fit in budget and have room to upgrade. Processor is not top notch but fits in my budget as well, and the case is simple and clean.

I chose a a fast AM4 socket CPU to go with the RTX 3050.

I chose a build for people who want to stream, play games and have a budget friendly build under $1500. Plays 1080p like a boss around 100+ fps.

This was a fun little build that would be awesome for a first time builder wanting to put together their own gaming PC.
I considered an intel i5-12400 but the money I would have saved on the CPU, just would have gone straight to the motherboard, and it feels wrong to spend 200+ on an entry level mATX board. So a 5600X it is with a b550 board to allow overclocking through PBO2 just made the most sense.
I thought the Ram, case and motherboard both looked sleek in the white, but also allowed the fancy ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 3050 to stand out as the hero of the build.
Lastly I considered multiple drives for windows, games, and storage but with this being an entry level build, I decided to go with a single 1 TB m.2 for ease of installation as I thought that would be better suited for a first time PC builder.

My son and I like to play Minecraft and Wreckfest together, but in order to do so, he uses my new desktop while I use my 6 year old laptop. I already have many of the parts I would need to make him a decent build that can handle these games and any others he'd be interested in. (I have the case, m.2 drive, SSD, and CPU cooler already).
