My first build

[Elektra57]

This is my very first build. I will add some rgb later. It is already going to cost more than I thought. Going to order everything off Amazon tomorrow so tell me what you think. I am going to enter the buids.gg competition.

So far so good. But I would pick a better CPU into this build. Maybe a Ryzen 5 1600?

Without changing the budget I would probably get rx570 instead of 1050ti, and ryzen 3 2200g with it

Same advice as above. Get an RX 570 instead, it's way better and pricing is similar. I would also get a 2200G over the 1200. Get a better PSU as well. Like a corsair CX gray label, anything on this list tier c and above will do.

The thing is. I would like to but my son would steal it, lol. He plays games more than I do. So if I get any tech better than him, he will just confiscate it. I will have to save up enough to get 2.

The graphics card and power supply I already had from an upgrade my son did on his computer. Everything else will be new. I was worried about the power supply, so I will definitely look at your list.

So you would rather get a crappier part? You would only have to save up for 1 if you went ahead and just bought it.

You're right. Thank you for your advice.

So, I got everything today and starting building. I ran into an issue. I couldn't plug my usb 3 and hd audio cord into the mother board with the graphics cord mounted. I had to order an extender, I will get it in a couple of days. I am just aggravated. I also couldn't get the i/o cover to work. The motherboard would not line up with the cover on. I am going to take everything out and do a video when the extender gets here so you can see my issue. I don't know if this is just a common complaint with the Corsair Carbide case, or if it is just something trivial that I don't understand because I am so new at this.
