Cheapest streaming PC build possible????

[VirusDumb]

Well I posted 2 threads about getting a streaming PC in which my budget were $600 and then $300 but now the budget has fallen to $200 because of my biology teacher who gave me wrong marks.

So what's the cheapest PC (which can stream fortnite) under $350 (I have$150 lying around somewhere) also before you suggest a used part make sure they are available in India.

Is this just a streaming pc or is it streaming and gaming at the same time?

 

What quality and settings? ifyour willing to go 480p almost anything to stream.

 

Do you have anyparts already? Monitor type + specs?

Your best bet is to find a sub $100 used Dell optiplex with something like a 4th or 5th gen i5 and throw in a used RX 570 (or 1050ti if the power supply doesn't have an external power connector)

It should if you pair it with a decent GPU.

$350 equates to around Rs. 25000.

 

You can get a rx570 for around Rs. 5000.

You can even get a rx480 for around Rs.7000, if needed.

 

Get a used prebuilt from Dell, hp or Acer with 3rd, 4th gen i5 and i7. Most of the go for around $100 on eBay. Stay away from SFF prebuilts as they are pain in the ass to upgrade. I'll recommend something like this...

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dell-Optiplex-7010-Core-i5-3470-3-2ghz-8GB-DVDRW-NO-HD-MT-Tower-Computer/233323701797?hash=item36532d2625:g:J-EAAOSw~jJcpqeF

 

 

Get a cheapo 240gb SSD. I have seen a few  drives going fr around Rs.2500 on Amazon.in.

You can get a cx550 PSU from mdcomputers.in for around Rs. 4450.

So effectively you can get a pretty decent gaming rig for around Rs.20000.
