This is a budget pc that i am planning on putting together for my best friends girlfriend. Any errors?

1. You need a case not just a case fan

2. I would get a ryzen 3 2200G instead of the i3-8100

3. What is the purpose of this build, if it is just a browsing pc you can use integrated graphics and get 8GBs of ram instead of 16.

I doubt you need 8GB of RAM with the other specs. Also I would go up to an RX 570 for not much more, but much better performance.

less money for better GPU:

Also ITX is more expensive than other form factors, but if you'd prefer it I'll leave my sig here for a cheeky recommendation.

1. Fixed, just forgot to press att to list.

2. Good idea didn't think of that. Might consider it.

3. The only things she said she wanted to do was to be able to play League of Legends and CSGO since her old school laptop can't reallly handle it. I decided to push it a little bit further just to future proof it a bit more.

What do you mean with "I doubt you need 8GB of RAM with the other specs." And I haven't worked with AMD GPUs nor have I considered them but this looks great.

the i3 8100 isn't ideal, mainly because Intel changes the socket when they bring a new platform of CPUs (7,8, and 9th gen have all been refreshes of 6th gen... lol). The socket AM4, from AMD is going to be used until the end of next year (2020) and your friend will be able to slap a wayyy better CPU in an AM4 motherboard than an Intel LGA1151 motherboard. It'll be cheaper to upgrade, too.

btw the 1050 and 1050Ti are garbage compared to the RX 570. The RX 570 destroys both of them, and is priced much better.
