First PC build...need second opinion....

[DynaMight]

 Im a 15 year old living in Dubai... I recently decided to build my first PC on a 700$ budget. I will be moving to India after i build this. I want to know your opinion on my pc. Also if anyone lives in Dubai and knows where to get pc parts at good price please tell me. The prices are a bit overpriced here so I'm getting most of them through New Egg Global and some through souq.com ( amazon company based in Middle East). I'm listing my PC build and If you guys can suggest me to make my build better without going over budget it would be great. I'll also be linking the the links to the components from where i intend to buy. If there is any compatibility issues please tell me...I have also mentioned the price in my area converted to USD ( including shipping, VAT etc )

If you can try to get rx 570 8gb or rx 580 gb. They are usually cheaper and better than gtx 1060 3gb. Everything else looks ok to me.

Also what are you going to be using this pc for exactly.

I would look for a Seagate Barracuda or WD Blue HDD in the 1TB flavor instead of the Toshiba drive.

 

If you're on a tighter budget, disregard the SSD, you don't need that right away.

mostly for gaming....Might do some light video edits here and there.....

 

Rx 580 is costly here

And I watched some videos where gtx 1060 3gb had much better fps in games compared to rx570 8gb

would it be better if I paired the 580 8gb with r3 2200g rather than i3 with 1060 3gb

The quality of Toshiba's drives aren't the best, that's why I recommended Seagate or WD.

 

120GB isn't going to hold much more than your Windows install, and you're already over budget with the SSD. I had a 1TB HDD in my rig as my local disk for a few years and I never came close to filling it up.

Rx 580 8gb is much better than 1060 3gb. When it comes to these 2 cpu they have very similar performance but the good thing about am4 socket is that it will be supported till the end of 2020 making it easier to upgrade to a newer generation if you will ever have a desire to upgrade.

Go with the cheaper rx 580 since there  is almost no difference between these 2.

Same goes for r3 2200g. Just get the cheapest r3  2200g since there is no difference between the r3 2200g from the first link and r3 2200g from the second link.
