I'm looking for a build that would use gt 1030 or ryzen 2400g. This PC will be for light gaming csgo or gta 5 and for general home use such as watching Netflix.  I have budget for around 400 us dollars.  I don't need ssd, hdd is fine. Any suggestions?

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.
