    You may want to get a 16gb ram kit. 8 seems to be the lower limit now a days.
    Everything else seems really solid
     
    EDIT--
    If you are planning to upgrade ram in the future, why not just do it now? Might touch the limits of your budget though

    i3 is a waste of money but your choice mate. Literally no one so far has recommended the i3 over the G4560 so what does that tell you?
     
    The reason is more expensive is because that is a 480, which is leaps and bounds above the 460 in your build. Drop that down to a 470 then still far better than a 460.
     
    EDIT:
     
    Dropped it to a 470. Though I remain adamant that you should have an SSD you'll thank me for it later.

    So the apollo lite has an very nice premium feeling to it and the fingerprint reader is one of the best i have ever used and the signal reception is pretty awsome aswell.
    The cameras are pretty good but the main camera has a little weaknes in the dark. Another bummer is that the phone doesn't have dedicated softkeys so you have to use the buttons on the display.
    The battery is pretty solid aswell and it reaches without an problem through the day.

    you'll need to change the permissions before you can do anything to it, right click on the file and go to properties
    then security then click your pc name and click on edit permissions and select the full control checkbox
     then you should be able to do what you want to those files , you can also do it to folders and i think drives/partitions aswell

    Do people need supercars? Faster = better?
     
    If you keep games on an ssd they will load faster, but not much else.
     
    As for file types, I don't think it matters these days.

    The samsung evo ssd has an guarante for 70Terrabytes  but a test of an very reliable german computer magazin shows that they can actually take more than one Petabyte. So I gues you are fine.

    losBaumos reacted to Snowmirage in $10k Audio Ethernet Cable? AudioQuest CES2017   
    A friend of mine came across this article and we both had a good laugh regarding the authors commends about this $10,000 (Yup thats Ten Thousand Dollars) Audiophile Ethernet Cable from AudioQuest.

    I won't go into a rant about how stupid the companies claims are as the author of this article sums it up far better than I could anyway.
     
    After we both stopped laughing I actually started to get angry.  As a network engineer who is intimately familiar with Ethernet and the OSI model I was rather ticked off at the companies claims.  Went to their web site and I see ....

    It will run at the lower clocks the motherboard supports.

    the best way to check this is by checking your gpu usage and cpu usage during those games, whichever reaches 100% the most is the one you should upgrade.
