Hello. I am currently trying to build or have me built a new gaming PC that will fit around my budget of $1000-$1500. I would prefer if my Rig would be closer to $1000 if possible. Currently I have set up a Rig that will be around $1100 but I do not know if it will fit together nicely. Since it will be a gaming PC I spent more money on the motherboard, Processor and graphics card.
Currently I am looking at a computer like this.

Note:This graphics card isn't the best one I looked at, but it looked as the best most affordable one that I could buy with my budget.

Totals.
Amazon.com: $803.08
Newegg.com:$210
Trinitysoftware.com:$85
Total: $1098.08
ConclusionI would assume that since I have no experience in assembling a computer, that I will hire a professional to overtake the assembly of this rig and so I have left a generous estimate in that the assembly of this Rig will cost around $200 if not $300 in which will make my total around $1400 or $1500 range.
Again I am not sure if the assembly of this Rig is even possible and in so am asking for the advice of the people. I know that this is my first post and I hope that I will find the answers that I need to either find a better and more affordable Rig or if this rig myself is possible. I thank you for your time for reading this post.
Advice will always be warmly received and I hope that I did not waste too much of your time.
