Poor Man's Son's PC - Micro Center Build
My younger son wanted a gaming PC. I did not have any budget for it, so decided to make him something as cheap as possible. Let me tell you, it would not have been possible if my older son had not donated his old PC parts including his old 1050ti, power

Wow seems like a decent build on a tight budget. In the future I would recommend upgrading the Ram to 16GB and put in a Intel core i5 6500 or 7500 (motherboard supports 6 and 7 th gen).

Good will is offering Intel core i5 6500 for $15 if this helps
