Is this pc going to be worth the money?

Hi,

 

It time for me to get a new pc because my current pc is over 7 years old.

I am now making my final build plan but I want to get a review and tips to improve it because no one wants to build a pc that sucks after spending money.(€600)($650)

 

Bottom line,

Is this pc going to be worth the money?

"zwart" is Dutch for black. It's a colour not a feature!

Looks fine, except the SSD is pretty small. I assume you plan to use your current ssd/hard drive in this new build to help offset the lack of storage space?


Besides that, it should be a decent little 1080p gaming PC.

Specific reason you want to buy from alternate?

Also don't get that GTX 1650. It sometimes can't even beat an RX 570

An rx 580 is a better option.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Almost anything will be an upgrade compared to that.

use 2600 and get a better PSU and motherboard and ssd

I would recommend grabbing a larger SSD though anyways. 500 GB or so. Better for longevity and actual space usable
