Hello everybody, I was hoping to get some suggestions for a gaming pc that I can also use for college projects. This will be my first build and after watching build videos I am confident I can do it. I have $650 to spend I can go higher if it will make a significant difference but not much higher. I already have an OS, monitor, keyboard,and mouse just need the rest also I would prefer a mid tower case. Thank you.
