Gaming computer question

this is my first build. Is this an ok budget build that can run some decent games at low and medium settings? Also is the gpu compatible with the motherboard? Any chance I can make this cheaper? I was thinking about getting a cheaper case and maybe 500gb instead of 1tb.

Everyone was a noob at the beginning, don't be discouraged by toxic trolls even if u lose 15 times in a row. Keep training and pushing yourself further and further, so u can show those sorry lots how it's done !

Be a supportive player, and make sure to reflect a good image of the game community you are a part of. 

Don't kick a player unless they willingly want to ruin your experience.

We are the gamer community, we should take care of each other !

I would honestly get a off lease business grade prebuilt like one of these (https://vancouver.craigslist.org/van/sys/d/vancouver-dell-9020-mt-i7-4770/6958034377.html), and use the savings towards a GTX 1050 or something. 

 

Those prebuilts often cost less than trying to build new and still comes with a few extra goodies like a SSD boot drive in this case, along with the fully licensed copy of Windows. 

 

For such a low budget in Canadian Rupees, going used is your best bet.

A GTX 750 is not performative enough for 720p60. It's basically only going to be good enough for 720p30 in games newer than 2014.

 

If you're trying to save money by buying previously owned parts, I would probably direct that towards the CPU/MB instead. The GPU needs to be at least a GTX 1060/1050Ti if you want to play DX12 games at all. Since these are still rather "new-ish" I'd probably look for someone doing an upgrade who is getting rid of their previous parts. There's 1060's and 1050TI's on eBay for around $120, but be careful since that's the tier that the fakes exist at.

 

My only other comment on your part selection would be, that you can probably find previously owned boards from people upgrading to Ryzen 3xxx systems on eBay as well.
