Budget is $1500 or lower.

To be used as all around (light gaming, picture processing, and non-professional video at times) PC for travel when necessary and at home.

 

Can I just have the thoughts, and criticisms of this proposed build? Waiting on Disability to be able to purchase since internet, and PCs is my hobby, and at home 90% of the time now. I will most likely stick with these components, but if I get strong enough logical reasoning I may consider changing the components. Prices are via PCPARTPICKER, and will likely do searches to verify nothing lower available, but MUST be from reputable source.

@keith47111 With the build I made, you wont need to upgrade for a while. It will be able to handle all the latest games at max setting with at least 60 FPS.

just under your budget. It will be good for anything. if you need to cut costs, go to a 1060 6gb and an i5 8600k or a 1070

Overall looks pretty solid to me, I might suggest going with a similarly priced Ryzen 2600  system instead however since you get multi-threading, 6-cores/12-threads. It's at $165 on Amazon (at the time of this post.)

Here's my take. By switching to a case that's compatible with ATX power supplies, you'll be able to get less expensive quality power units and reallocate the budget to the rest of the system. I chose 32GB for you right off the bat as you're going mITX with only 2 DIMM slots. Instead of a small SSD and 1TB HDD, your budget actually allows for a single 1TB SSD in the M.2 slot. The 9600K for gaming will be just as good as anything else especially when overclocked. The highlight, of course, is the RTX 2070.
