Need Help Choosing Parts
KS_28
✭
I put this parts list together and am looking for some advice. I already have a hard drive, monitor, keyboard/mouse, and a copy of Windows 10. I have been a console player for years and want to dip my toes into PC gaming and came up with this to start. I do not have a lot of spare cash which is why I tried to keep it cheap. Any insights or thoughts would be greatly appreciated:)

Greetings. What is your overall budget? You're going to need a video card for gaming and there is not one picked out.

My intent was to stay under $500 as best as possible, using the Vega 11 integrated graphics until I have enough money to get a dedicated GPU down the road. I have an Xbox One X so I am not trying to make a PC that can play at the highest fidelity or framerates possible, just something very basic to get started.

Other than the GPU, would you say that seems like a good (although basic) entry point into PC gaming?
