Cheap Pc build for an animator, budget is 500$-600$ (listed from most important to least)

Processor needs to handle rendering 3D animations and in After Effects and Cinema 4D

Graphics Card doesnt need to be very fancy, just something that will help me render in 720p HD at least.

Motherboard can be whatever

8gb of ram

HDD can be any size, I wont be downloading games or saving my projects on there after completion so size doesnt matter.

power supply can be anything

case can be anything

Mostly Id like to put most of the money towards the processor and graphics card thanks to whoever helps
