Hey guys and girls, so as the title says I'm building my first pc (intended for gaming), with the intent of having something i can upgrade over time. Can y'all take a look at the parts I have in mind and give some feedback whether there's something better for +- the same price point or whether i should strongly consider upping the price of some parts, or even if i can get something cheaper(I thought RAM) - no specific budget but tryina keep the cost as low as possible. Also I'm aiming to play CS, Apex Legends, Maybe some Pubg.

 

Parts-

cpu - Ryzen 3 3200g

mobo - Asus TUF b450m-pro

gpu - Asus gtx 1650 dual OC 4gb

ram - hyperx fury 8gb ddr4

psu - corsair cx 650

ssd - hp s700 500gb

box - cougar gemini s

 

  -also, am i missing something (except peripherals)

If you are upgrading and are going to use a dedicated GPU, you shouldn't get a cpu with an IGP.

Like the guy above me posted, a 2600 combined with an rx590 would be better for performance, since you don't invest in features you won't use.

Gamesystem: X3700, 32GB memory @3200mhz, GTX1080 Hybrid

Unraid system: Epyc 7352, 24/48, 96GB ECC buffered @2666mhz, 2x GT710, GTX1050Ti

What country are you in?

  • No need for an APU when you're getting a GPU. 
  • The B450 Tuf boards are pretty trash. Grab a B450 Pro 4 for a budget MOBO.
  • The 1650 is really not a good buy. The competitive RX570 can double up on VRAM for less $$. The budget king is gonna be the RX580, and the 590 is typically a good value as well. 
  • Dont overspend on hyper x. There is plenty of 8gb DDR4 3200mhz Kits for ~$65. 
  • Corsair CX is a good choice. If 550W is currently a savings, you wont need 650. 
  • Awesome budget case is the Cougar MX330. Great air design, cable mgmt, psu shroud, lots of drive support.
