Hi All!
What do you think of this build? I plan to play mostly older strategy type games Civ V, Total War, etc... I'm really extending my budget already, I know the GPU isn't great but it will be fine for what I need right now. What do you think? I am planning to buy today trying to buy most stuff from Amazon and Newegg but are there any possible deals I'm missing or anything I can do to get under $800?
