Build Help

[Justin Bernardino]

Hey guys, I’m planning on building my own PC, and it happens to be my first one! I plan on playing games such as Skyrim modded and Fallout 4 modded and was curious on how I should approach the build.  Budget is $800 or less but I am willing to go close to $1200

USD or CAD?

What are you playing at? 1080/1440?

Do you need a monitor and peripherals as well?

Only thing I can add to this is to expand your storage even further if you're going to be playing games. 1TB gets eaten away too fast now, especially with mods. 

 

The Meshify C case can also be had for less if you shop around, the NZXT s340 or h500 cases are good alternatives.

I am actually playing on nothing right now, to get it out of the way and to be fair, my brother is more on the tech side of things, I just wanna get more input and information for a decent-good gaming pc. Everyone is just so helpful right now, I actually feel bad for not knowing a lot of different type of builds. I’m so new to this that I don’t know even the best peripherals for a pc.
