Hey, everyone. First off, I apologize profusely. I asked this same question earlier this month. The parts that were recommended came off of sale, however, so the previously recommended build is now out of my price range.

I need a case, cpu, psu, ram, ssd, and mobo for gaming. I have a placeholder card that will do just fine until a better gpu can be afforded. My price range is right around $500.

I'm ready to buy right now, so sales are welcome!

Thanks!

AMD build but this allows you to add in a 2nd GPU in the future

If you want an 8 core you can spend $50 more on an 8320
