I'm building my first rig , need opinions and advices on it

Mihail_3 · Jul 2, 2016

Hello guys, I am building my first rig and I would like to hear some opinions on it and some advises or recommendations on changing something.Also if you suggest me swapping something please keep your recommendation in the same price range because my budget is limited.It is going to be primary for gaming.I did researched a lot of stuff and this is what I came up with:

CPU: i5-6500
MOBO: ASUS H110M-A (I know it is cheap one but I hope it's good enough?)
RAM: Kingston 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 2133MHz HX421C14FBK2/16
SSD: Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200rpm 64MB SATA3 ST1000DM003
GPU: RX 480 (hoping to get one of this with aftermarket coolers)
PSU: EVGA 500W 100-W1-0500-KR
CASE: Deepcool Tesseract BF (not sure about this case, it's a cheap one but seems good enough)
Monitor: LG 24MP68VQ-P (any opinions on this one? i haven't been able to find a review for it but I really like the specs - 1080p/24inch/60hz/5ms/IPS and AMD Freesync)

I have the rest of the stuff like mouse,keyboard and Windows.

Trafalgar747 :

Thanks for your suggestion. The motherboard looks nice , it costs just a little bit more and have 4 DIMMs but that's the only significant difference that I can see.About the ram you suggested , this brand is not really popular in my country ant the models are limited and the one you have suggested is not available.Also I think there is no point in buying 2400mhz memory when the mobo supports only 2133mhz.Next in the list is the SSD , the one you have suggested is a little bit cheaper but the write speeds are significantly lower and I am not sure if it is worth to get it instead of the samsung one for just a little more.About the HDD I do not need 2TB , 1TB is fine for me.Also I am looking for mid-ATX case not Mini or ITX. About the PSU , I don't think I need such a high end PSU , the one you suggested is almost double the price in my country compared to the one I've listed , isn't mine suggestion good enough? And about the monitor , this model is not available in my country.

Thanks for you recommendation again and I would like to hear more opinions please.

What country do you live in?

Trafalgar747 :

I'm living in Bulgaria and most of the prices here are fucked up.You can check out http://www.pazaruvaj.com to see the prices for yourself.This website compares the prices between most of the shops in my country.My budget is 1900-2000 BGN including the RX 480 which I will get later when the aftermarket variants are out and the prices have calmed down a little.

Pick a better PSU - really that's about my only complaint , everything else is fine .

Case wouldn't be my first choice but that's user preference.

madmatt30 :

Can you give me any suggestion about a good quality budget friendly PSU?
Also I would like to hear few recommendations about a case too.I only picked up this one because it had USB 3.0 and was cheap.I do not care for how it looks as long as it can fit all the parts , have USB 3.0 and is cheap.

Also do you know something about the monitor , because as I already said I was not able to find a review about it.

For budget choices those would be my personal picks (I've tried to stick as close as possible yo your budget choices)

The monitor-no , can't find a review anywhere .
Specs do look excellent, & lg do only use their best class screens in their own branded monitors.

Looks very good to me , a 75mhz IPS would normally cost a fairly hefty premium.

Ordered the case but the PSU is out of stock everywhere.Can you suggest me something else?
Maybe one of this?

Its an OK oem unit , only has 2x6 pin GPU connectors so if you bought an 8 pin card you'd have to use an adapter.
