Help picking parts

Yessir · May 2020

Hello I’m relatively new to choosing parts and I would like to have a build that can stream and play games like fortnite Csgo warzone apex etc and have a budget of 800 dollars with no way peripherals

Hello @Yessir! Welcome to the Community.

Before giving a recommendation I do have one question for you: Is that budget including the cost of Windows as well? Remember, Windows is an extra $140 and that will change the recommendations I would give.

Yes I don’t have windows but I do have it for other devices

So, I came up with this configuration:

That's with a copy of Windows included, which puts it up to $808.91 before taxes. If you need to save a bit to account for taxes, you could drop the SSD and use just a hard drive, but your loading times and bootup will be slower than if you were using an SSD.

We can for sure add those in,, would you be looking to include those within the $800 budget?

Yes I don’t have windows or a monitor or mouse so could you add those in the build

Okay. So with that in mind, I'm going to be up-front with you and say that doing this as a full custom build is probably not going to be that cost effective.

This is about the best configuration I could come up with that stayed close to your budget:

https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=10a3e37b-7140-4b0d-b9b3-2e17095554c8

But it's about as budget as budget can get.

I think you'd be better off purchasing something like our Powerspec B244 then adding a GTX 1650 Super and an extra hard drive to it. It comes with a keyboard/mouse and Windows included, and you can get a 1080p/60Hz monitor along with it. After taxes that would total about $810. If you did it like this, you'd have a better processor, better GPU and an SSD for Windows so it would overall perform better than the configuration I just listed above.
