Budget (including currency): $1700 USD

Country: United States

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Apex Legends, Valorant, Minecraft, Overwatch, Adobe Premeire, and some streaming.

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

Currently have a Acer Aspire VX15:

  • GTX 1050
  • Intel Core i5 7th gen Processor.
  • 400gb of Storage
  • 16gb of Ram

 

I am currently looking to get a PC, and because of GPU shortages, went to CyberPowerPC to custom build a Gaming PC. This is what I currently have and was wondering if I should change any of the parts that I currently have, or if this is a good build.

 

P.S. Ignore what I have chosen for the RAM. I have 2x8GB 3600mhz Ram sticks on hand. I just chose what I chose to bring down the price.
