I just built my first rig 3 weeks ago and I knew nothing just like you. This forum is really helpful and google/youtube any questions you have. As long as you can read manual and use screw driver, you are coverd :) Overall build is fine, but not optimal if you...

Not really, bad PSU, 1050 ti is not enough for some AAA games under high setting. You can use win10 unregistered until you can afford it. SSHD is not improving much. This will be a better gaming pc than your build.

Sorry I should have said that I'm really a novice to all this, Ik everyone says building a pc is actually easy but I really would rather buy a built one for fear of doing something wrong,

on the customize page of that pc I can't upgrade the speed of the ram just the amount to 16gb, but I can upgrade the psu to an EVGA 80 plus 500W, FSP 80 plus bronze 500W, or an aerocool 700w 80 plus

Sorry again I appreciate everyone taking the time to link to those individual parts
