Hello,
Thanks for the time. I have never built a PC, always have been interested, but now I have the opportunity. My brother-in-law wants a gaming PC and we decided it might be the best route to build one due to cost constraints. He is trying to stick around $800. Here is what I have come up with. Could you guys let me know if I should change anything or am missing something:
