Hello everyone!
I received some great help last year with my own build so I would love to pick your brains once again with this one.
My 7 year old son has been asking me for ages for his own gaming PC so as Christmas is coming up I figured I would build him one. I have a list of parts i've put together and I was just looking for some feedback to see if these would all work well together and if there is anything I should be aware of.
He will be using it for Minecraft, Lego games and watching Youtube.
I'm trying to keep it fairly cheap but also with the possibility of upgrading in the future.
CPU: AMD FX-4350 4-Core Processor Black Edition
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Mobo: ASUS M5A78L-M PLUS USB 3
GPU: ASUS AMD Radeon R7 240 2 GB
Memory: Corsair Vengeance Pro Series 1866MHz 8GB (already owned)
PSU: Corsair CP-9020096-UK VS Series VS450 ATX/EPS 80 PLUS 450W
HDD: WD Blue 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 6 Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch
Optical Drive: I have an old one from a PC I had years ago.
OS: Windows 8.1
I've not yet decided on a case.
This build has come to a total of £294.02 (not including OS) Which I didn't think was too bad.
What do you guys reckon?
Thank you for your time.
