I am sorry do disappoint you but I don´t think so. The main problem is the 4 GB RAM and the 2 GB GPU, to be more specific:

 

- The first item shows a 4 GB RAM stick. Do you already have more? Because that is not enough for gaming and editing. 8 GB is the bare minimum these days.

- Your GPU has only 2 GB. You won´t play much or at least not on acceptable settings. I don´t think you will have much fun with this card as you need a least 4 GB for gaming and editing.

- Why the overkill PSU with 600w? You can save money here

- Your HDD has only 5400 rpm with is slow compared to the regular 7200 rpm ones. 5400 rpm is used in laptop HDD. This means useing it especially for games will lead to higher load times

 

Is the HDD worth it considering the high price? You could instead buy a bigger SSD but that is however optional and your choice

You bought laptop memory for a desktop system with a desktop motherboard. Why?

[captain_to_fire]

5400 rpm HDD will be agonizingly slow which is made worse by the paltry 4GB of RAM. For a little more money, I would've paid for a 500 GB or 1TB WD Blue SATA SSD and a 7200 rpm HDD with a larger capacity.

I hope the store you bought that from has a good return policy as you'll be needing to return pretty much all of it. Actually just return it all and start from scratch.

 

Check out the new builds and planning forum for some advice on what parts to select.

Not sure about prices but that power supply is bad, no name unless Kingses is the brand, also "high" wattage for a somewhat low price, those are all red flags.

Also the case is a kit meaning it already comes with a supposedly 450W PSU, so you'd end up with two. It makes no sense.

 

The 2,5 inch drive is for a laptop, it'll certainly work on a desktop but it's not made for it.

 

The RAM is also for a laptop as it's SODIMM, it will not work on that mainboard.

 

The rest is good I guess, looks like it's a budget build, you could get an used 750Ti and save some bucks for later, the performance diff isn't huge compared to the non-Ti 2G 1050.

thx I'll ask the store too change it

for the gpu I've ask for 750ti but they are out of stock I've ask for 970 that's wayy too expansive so I'm actually for to go with this the 1050 2gb unless 8f i can get an amd RX (there supplier doesn't know yet if they have it)

 

I've swap the SSD for 2x4gbDDr4

 

HDD ill try to find a 1tb 7200rpm

Go to a different store. Don't buy from them.

The parts in the list they gave you are either old, garbage, or not compatible with the other parts.

The 750ti, 970 and 1050 are all old cards no longer in production. NVIDIA is currently on 1600/2000 series cards.

GTX 1600 doesn't exist. It's 1600 series cards, so 1650, 1650 super, 1660, 1660 super, 1660 ti. I suggest you do a bit of research before buying so you know what it is you're getting.

Buying a 2nd hand graphics card is not a bad idea if you want something cheaper but you still need to research what you're buying and make sure the price is fair for a used card. Don't let people try to sell you a 6 year old graphics card as if it is "new".

 

Forget the HDD. Buy an SSD. Using a HDD as a boot drive is slower than a seaturtle dragging its balls across the sand. You can always add a HDD for additional storage later.

 

For the PSU get a good PSU not just some fake or no name garbage. Again, do research or people will take advantage of you and try to rip you off selling you the crappiest thing they've got that no-one else would buy. Check the PSU tier list posted at the top of the PSU forum.

 

And because it really needs to be said. The store that gave you that first list are either idiots or crooks. Probably both. Do not give them any money.

People here are really good at giving advice and help when choosing parts for a PC and I'm sure they can help you out.

the store they were Chinese so think for yourself what they care

 

the psu when i can go out I'll go find it

 

for the HDD should i get a 128 or 512 SSD (I'm not experienced in Fast load times before)

plus I've always been patient person

 

The GPU I'm not planning on play 3A Games from 2018 (expect WWZ and Outer Worlds)

 I'll be mainly be playing Esports games and old 3A games like GTA5 and Fallout 4 etc

I would recommend 512 GB SSD if you do not have to cut corners on the GPU. It is large enough for windows and a few games.

 

To give you a better perspective. The GPU is the most important part when it comes to gaming because it influences your frames per second the most. This is followe by the CPU and afterwards the RAM.

Yes for now but that might change once you realise that your new PC is capable of playing never games well.
