Is this a good pc for the money? I'm still new to this and I want to get a pc. I plan on building it on my own. I'm also wondering if I should wait until Black Friday to buy this as it will be cheaper. Any changes, recommendations, or suggestions you have, feel free to post. I don't plan on overclocking and would like to stay under $800 USD. Thanks
