Budget PC Build

[icedwater]

Hey Guys!

 

Im completely stuck on a budget gaming pc build. This pc should be able to mainly run fortnite and keep up to date with some of the latest games. The problem is, the budget is 450$ CAD. Please help!!

do you need a monitor and other peripherals in this budget or just the pc it self ?

would you consider used parts,  your budget is pretty low... may be around $700?

target resolution...?

you should look into used parts, otherwise for new parts you will end up with quite a low powered system

I may have to go over 450 CAD, but I think that I can build a computer that can game now and take some upgrades later, he is not going to have a ton of room for his games though.

When he can I would recommend he picks up an RX570 or better, 8GB more of RAM, and an HDD, but this should hold him over for the moment.

I mean it's CAD but still, having to go to a shitty PSU and single stick of (gag) 2400 ram is painful.

Don't forget that evil Rosewill case, a lack of a mass storage drive, and a MOBO with only single channel memory.... At least I managed to still secure somewhat of an upgrade path....

monitors are pretty standard price / inch for popular brands, pick any suitable size(eg 24") with freesync for any cheapest branded model
