My search for an ideal PC has been fruitless, so I've caved and I'm trying to build one myself. My hope is to build an average gaming/work PC on an extreme budget. The tutorials here have been helpful in searching for parts, but I confess I'm still doing my research and homework. Could someone take a look at my shopping list and offer some advice? I'm trying to keep my cost under $500 USD.
- Rosewill Gaming ATX Mid Tower
- Intel Pentium Processor G3258
- EVGA GeForce GT 730 1GB GDDR5 64bit DVI/HDMI/VGA Low Profile Graphics Card
- AMD Athlon 5350 APU, 2.05Ghz
- AMD Radeon Memory Entertainment Series 16 GB KIT
- WD Blue 1 TB Desktop Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, 7200 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache
Apologies in advance for my lack of technical understanding. I only know enough not to mess with PC's, most days. But since I'm moving and bringing my current PC isn't financially viable, I'd like to upgrade and learn about the process. Thanks in advance.
