I am new to PC gaming, and building a PC in general. I am looking for any recommendations based off this list, that would help drive the price down while keeping the performance the same (if not better).
Also, I am pretty sure I took the precaution to make sure the components are compatible with each other; however, a second pair of experienced eyes would be appreciated to double check this.
**And if you have noticed within my PCPartPicker list, I am only trying to buy PC components from off of Amazon using Amazon Prime service for the free 2 day shipping, as I want to get a hold of these parts in time for Christmas.
Along with the core components, I also need to get another copy of Windows 8 OS and a cheap, reliable keyboard (doesn't have to be mechanical). Also, I threw in the DVD drive because I still would have a use for them and they aren't too expensive. With this said, I am trying to keep the final cost (preferably) under, if not close, to $600.
All help and considerations are greatly appreciated! Thanks
