Posted October 21, 2021 Ditch the cooler and just use the stock cooler, it'll probably be better than that ThermalTake one that's already in there. Get faster memory, especially if you're gonna use an iGPU. That said, getting this system down to $400 is basically impossible with this CPU, and even stepping down to a pentium isn't gonna get you down to $400 with a keyboard, mouse and monitor. You're best option is to buy a used prebuilt and a half decent GPU to throw in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
