So i am building a my first pc, and decided to do so on a $400 dollar budget. Ive been researching the parts and i think this rig is great for the cost ratio. Feedback is greatly accepted as well as part alternatives. I said my budget was $400 dollars but its really 450 including shipping. If you make suggestions, please make sure that with shipping its not over $450. (its all that i have in my paypal account ) I would like to stick with amd processors btw. thanks in advance. P.S. Any advice for first time system builder is welcome.
