Just looking for some help getting started

I've been on console my whole life, except for a terrible "gaming" laptop I bought when I was young. Honestly I'm just looking for a build that will run Rainbow well and hopefully be below $700 USD. I've been watching cheap build videos almost all day deciding on parts but who better to ask then someone who was in my position before.

A 700USD is quite good for a decent gaming rig. LTT has released quite a few budget guides this 2020. 
You should check that out, https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=budget+gaming+linus+2020

Linus also just streamed last week; a gaming rig less than 800USD

 

Downloading RAM . . . 1%

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

locked i5 with Z390 board means he'd spend an extra $90 for no reason at all.

That PSU is crappy, just because you see some brand you like doesn't mean it will be good.
