Im looking to build a budget PC probably around $500-$600 and am having trouble deciding on what CPU to go with. Some other parts I have decided on are a GTX 1050Ti, DDR4-2400 Memory. Any ideas on a good CPU to pair

An i3-8100 would be more then enough. An i5-8400 or Ryzen 2600 would also be good next tier up option if you can squeeze in them in the budget but the 8100 will handle CSGO no problem.

With regards to RAM speed I woudl suggest getting 2666 if you go Intel or with Ryzen try and find 3000mhz or great. Also be sure to buy the RAM in dual channel, so for 8GB the pack sold as two 4GB sticks, 16GB the pack of 8gb etc.
