Budget Pc

I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for a gaming pc that can do 1080p at around 60 FPS at medium-low settings.  The budget would be around 700 USD and the game I would play would mostly be gta, 5 fallout 76, csgo, battlefield 1 & 5, and PUBG*. 

 

 

* PUBG would be acceptable at all low 40-50 FPS

Buy a used intel 4th gen computer, they are so dirt cheap now and they are still a good pc. Go with an i5 or an i7 depending on the price difference. The prices are so fucking cheap now! Cheaper then a night out partying!

Did you just copy and paste the list itself, or did you use the markup utility?

@LamoidZombieDog I'm sorry man but those builds are kinda crappy, instead of wasting money on a crappy case fan and DVD drive roll that money into a nicer case to start with, i've literally purchased a Define Meshify-C (with the tempered glass side panel) for the money you have allocated to that case, DVD drive and case fan, also PSU's aren't something where you want to just grab the cheapest one you can get. Also 2400 Mhz ram sucks for Ryzen, ESPECIALLY if you intend to use the integrated graphics of the 2200G you really need the higher speed ram for the IG. and a quick FYI to touch on what @Crunchy Dragon is saying, if you click this icon (circled in red)

you can paste in a list like the list I have below

 

to the OP this setup plus a used RX580 8GB  off Ebay should easily put you where you want to be price and performance wise:

Ok again, i did it that way because i wanted to.

 

besides, your Pc there is not a budget pc. its 574$. the point of the 2 builds i made, i sto have a pc one under 350$, and one under 450$. which would be the same price as buying a semi-high end prebuilt computer. so dont go bitching about the specs being shit when they arent

the OP stated his budget at $700, so thats what I spec'd out, why would you limit yourself to budgets half that amount? I created a build based on his budget, not to arbitrarily meet some much smaller number, but if you want I could tweak your builds, adding maybe $50 to each and have much better quality PSU's and better RAM more suited to the parts you have selected, which would greatly increase your overall component quality. At some point you just have to stop "cheaping out" to reach a specific dollar number because the quality of the machine is being effected, some things are worth spending an extra couple dollars on. I wasn't "bitching about the specs", my issue is the quality of specific components, these are the types of components worth making those concessions for, we are talking 15-25% increases in gaming FPS by swapping out the RAM alone, a 10% bump to the budget is well worth that kind of a performance gain.

 

here is a build less then $50 more then your $350 budget that gets you many of the same components (CPU and Motherboard) but swaps out to RAM better suited for a APU build (which will DRASTICALLY alter the gaming performance of the APU) and a better quality PSU that is even 80+ Gold certified.

I personally would not attempt to tweak your other build because having to drop down to 4GB of RAM to keep the same price delta is not worth it in 2019 and so I would just add the same GPU or suggest going after a used RX 580 8GB on ebay for the price of the 1050 and either way I'd be over the $500 price point since I wouldn't drop the RAM amount just to hit the pricepoint.

i didnt notice that until after i sent the part list. Regardless, if this computer can do everything he needs, Which it can, you could always get a better gpu and more ram if you wanted, and then your at 700$

Thanks for recommending our case! :)

 

I would suggest avoiding Apevia power supplies.  I like their cases and accessories, but the power supplies (especially the cheap ones) are currently some of the worst in the US market.

good to know. the case is great for selling custom pcs to customers who arent using it for gaming. ill defidently swap the power supply for something else
