Hello

I have been out of the hardware community for a while now and i have not built a PC myself in over 10years so im looking for a bit of help.

Im 29 and i have a baby girl on the way so my budget is a bit short so im looking for a bit of luck.

Im looking for a pc i can build that can run the game "For Honor" and maybe "Star citezen". I would like a pc that will run me about 500$ if possible i know this is really unlikely but hoping somebody can help me out.

Thx for the help

I've got a build going here for as little as possible. You may need an OS but I didn't include one. If you don't need an OS I would upgrade to a better GPU like the GTX 1050 Ti.

Changes:

- RX 460 4GB for cheaper than the 2GB that was listed.
- SeaSonic S12-II 520w Power Supply which is both cheaper and well known for being a great budget supply.
- Motherboard moved to a 4 RAM slots board for $5 more.
- RAM swapped to a dual-channel kit for only $2 more.

@DestLucks, i can't say for For Honour but Star Citizen isn't optimised at the moment so don't expect much out of this build until performance fixes come hopefully with the next major update in a few months (Update 3.0). If you can afford it, move up to this Graphics Card > https://pcpartpicker.com/product/tyNypg/gigabyte-radeon-rx-570-4gb-gaming-4g-video-card-gv-rx570gaming-4gd. Any higher would most likely be bottlenecked by the Pentium in most games. Hope this helps :)

Game-debate.com is a website that does that. I've found that a great way to see how a game runs on a particular system is to search for YouTube videos of people who have recorded gameplay of their system with a certain game. You won't always find what you're looking for, but you just might so it's worth a look.
