Feedback on my part list

waffleisback · Feb 22, 2017

I am planning on building my first gaming computer.

The parts I have decided on are listed below :

Intel Core i5-6400
ASRock H110M Mini-ITX Motherboard
8GB Crucial Memory DDR4
ADATA SP900 256GB SSD
MSI GeForce GTX 1050 2GB Low Profile
350 Watt Power Supply

In the future I also plan to buy a better cpu cooler maybe from Noctua

I plan on playing the following games :

Counter Strike : Global Offensive
Battlefield 1 ( Maybe )
Forza Horizon 2
Dirt 3

For Dirt and BF1, you'll want the 1050 ti.

The i5 6400 is at a bit of a stale price point. How about the 6500? You'd get an extra 500MHz for $15 more.

As for the power supply, 350W is not enough information. What make and model are you looking at?

weberdarren97 :

I'm not sure what model yet

Budget?

weberdarren97 :

probably $500 USD

Processor: $175
MB: $62
RAM: $55
SSD: $140
GPU: $110

So far you're at $542. A $500 budget will not work for this build. Would you rather increase the budget, or change the build to hit $500?

waffleisback :

Yeah... Your wish list isn't gonna happen at that point. Even if I get you intentionally cheap components other than the CPU and GPU, it's still way over budget.
