what city does OP live in, used is better option

[Princess Luna]

I don't like the 1050's limiting 2gb of vram though, that's going to give issue in some titles and upcoming others... the 1050ti would be ideal as the g4560 can get all of its juice out too... save a bit more for it is my advice ;x

If OP can't buy used, this is good

No the g4560 is a much better CPU already, also going with the Q6600 would kill his upgrade path completely while with a Kaby Lake system he could just get an i7 7700 here in 2~3 years and stay relevant.

[Hamil_P1]

just throwing my 2cents into this:

 

h110 mobo is fine, considering it will have little impact on your build

pentium G4560 seems great for the price

8 gb ram is perfectly fine, doesn't matter unless its some very weird brand

i think rx 460>1050, but not sure about 1050it

great idea choosing 80+ bronz psu from EVGA, yes

 

also factor in keyboard mouse monitor. those can add up. 

i know HP and acer make cheap mointors, azio makes a cool mechanical keyboard that didn't break the bank but there are cheaper options, logitech mouse i have is open box and perfectly fine. hope that helped. 

 

and good luck!

If that's a real price, its beyond insane. It's less than the price of the CPU by itself!

Nope, it's significantly slower than both.

Not really, it's not very high quality.

[Shiv78]

Cheap but high quality PSU, but not much upgrade room. Get a 520w Seasonic S12ii if you want extra upgrade headroom.

@Shiv78 I like this a LOT! thanks
p.s. I have my own SSD and HDD so I can save $50 there and bring the price right into my budget, cheers!

Maybe spend that extra $20-$30 on a more attractive case or a 1050Ti

As I mentioned before I will be burying the pc underground so aesthetics is not a problem, but 1050Ti for an extra 20-30 sounds like a good investment! (ง* ͜ʖ*)ง

[NinjaX]

btw do I need a cooler for the CPU? @Shiv78

Nope the G4560 includes a stock cooler, ugly but more than enough for this lil monster
