Hello all,
I have been passionate about PC gaming and PCs in general since 2008, and I have never been able to build one or purchase one. Now that I am 21 years old, and my income is $200 USD a month, with sacrifices made, I can save $70 USD a month. I am studying Computer and Communication Engineering, and I have a lot of programming courses. My laptop doesn't help me with programming or even gaming... so I thought it is really time to make a step of my dream, and build my own PC. I live in Lebanon, and I can't purchase from amazon, newegg or any similar website. In fact, we have similar websites locally and I will link them, so that if you have got time, you can check what they have and help me out. I am looking for a budget PC for gaming and productivity. At first I will get only one monitor, later on when I get more money, I will get another one.
Build color is mainly black and blue, some
For Case:
I have this case in mind, not so fancy, but good for the price. Please share your thoughts about it. Too bad it comes only with one pre-installed fan.

For CPU:
I want to get the Pentium G4560 but it is unavailable here. I thought about the G4400, but my laptop's cpu is almost the same. So I am going with the i3 7100.

For GPU:
Seriously, the prices are so high. I have to go with the GTX 1050ti. The price is tax and shipping excluded, total becomes ~$200

The RX 560 and Radeon R7 are cheaper. Are they any good?
For Memory:
Same as GPU, very high price.
