I am new to toms hardware. It is because I have a question for my gaming PC. I recently bought from Best Buy and I'm a bit scared. I'm getting it for Christmas but the specs were scaring me with the power supply. It comes with a case that has lighting, AMD 8320 as the processsor, 2 TB Hard drive, AMD Radeon R7 250 graphics card, and I believe a 350 watt power supply. I also bought a Razer BlackWidow Chroma, Razer Deathadder, Razer Firefly, Razer Stargazer, Razer Orbweaver, Blue Snoball mic, Elgato HD 60s, and some $45 speakers on amazon that light up! Someone please answer I really need it!! Thanks to you all

Even at $580 is not a good deal. $580 would get you a i3 6100 and Gtx 1050ti.

Sounds like you've heavily overspent on peripherals and could've bought a PC 5 times better for the amount you've spent in total.

FX-8320 + R7 250 will be quite horrible. Most of your peripherals are more expensive then your PC parts.

How much research did you do prior to buying?
