I want to build a mid range pc for gaming at 1080p, for about the $900AUD mark. This is still a rough draft but will give an idea of the sort of system I want to build.
Just before I start, I want to point out that I don't necessarily need to be playing on Ultra graphics settings, as this is an upgrade from my Acer Travelmate that I have for school. I also wont primarily be playing incredibly demanding games, and although I love a good RPG I primarily play strategy games, (CIV, Total War, anything by paradox interactive).
Any advice on potential problems I may find or better parts I could use for a similar price would be greatly appreciated.
Most of these parts are from a local computer store, called Scorptec. It doesn't have a huge catalogue, but It does have some competitive prices, especially for Australia.
CPU. Ryzen 5 2600. $200
SSD: Kingston A400 240gb. $52
HDD: My dad has a spare 1 TB hard drive that I can use, not sure what it's called. $0
Case: Silverstone Precision PS15 Black Micro ATX case.
RAM: Klevv BOLT X gaming 2x8GB 3200MHz $108
Motherboard**:** MSI A320M-A PRO MAX $95
GPU: Gigabyte Radeon RX 590 GAMING, 8GB $295 (On sale, only $5 more than the rx 580)
PSU: Corsair CV550 550W Bronze Power Supply
Again, any problems that I may have with the system, along with any improvements it could have would be greatly appreciated.
