Building A Gaming PC

[MattZ32]

I am wanting to build my first PC. I mostly us my current one for gaming. My price range is around $800-$1000. I'm not even sure if $1000 will be more than what I even need.

Do prices for parts change often?

Do prices for parts change often?

Yes they do change very often.

 

[MattZ32]

I've found most of the parts on Newegg.com. Are they reliable?

And of course, thank you for all your help.
