Hello guys,

(https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/W2crjc)

I have been researching into getting my first gaming Pc for a while and this is what I have come up with. Are there any changes you would make and will there be any performance bottlenecks?

Thanks in advance

G4560 is cheaper but only 4-5 % slower than i3
1050ti much better than rx 460 .
Ram is cheaper and faster ( Cas: 14) , also 2x dimms better than 4x
Also Psu is higher quality ( 450w are enough)

Rather weak and will struggle to get to 144hz in most games, if you want a build capable of 144hz you should up the budget or get a 60hz monitor and get a minimum of i5 or R5 with a RX 580 or GTX 1060.
