I already have a 750ti and a 500w thermaltake psu. I have an extra keyboard and mouse as well.
I need a cheap case with a few fans, a decent mobo/cpu/cooler combo, a cheap Hdd and dvd drive, and 8gb ram.
Cost is an issue here, and my budget would be as cheap as I can get it without gifting him a steaming pile of dogcrap.
Medium settings in game is fine. 45-50 fps is fine. 1080p preferred.
He has had a tumultuous life and has never been able to afford nicer things.
I went to visit him and his computer was a dinosaur running Windowa XP.
He saved for several months to buy a xbox1. He only has a few games for itn but he vastly enjoys then and he is clearly into gaming.
When i get him the PC he will have to plug it into his TV in his living room since he dies not have a desk or a monitor, but he can use his xbox1 controller and it should be ok.
I was planning on helping him get signed up for steam and gifting him a few games also when I give the PC to him.
Any help selecting low-cost-but-still-relevant component would be greatly apprecciated, as well and any general thoughts, advice or ideals concerning giving the the PC that I have overlooked or haven't thought of yet would be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your help.
