First build

Tamgam12 · May 3

Budget (including currency): $740

Country: us

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: manor lords, hydroneer, and similar

Other details: have 1tb gen4 m.2 samsung

My local market sucks. The best I can find will only save me about $30. The list is all new. Am I wasting my money? Any suggestions? Looks don't really matter, that said I do like the white case.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

You can get the same case with fans for a small amount extra called the 903 MAX

Apevia is a really bad PSU brand iirc, consult the tier list, youll want probably around tier C or above for your price range, but no lower

Other than that it looks pretty good

If those are new, that's actually a decent build already. If I'm going to nitpick on it, I would probably replaced that PSU and if you still have a few more $, get the dual tower air cooler.
