Hey!

 

I was talking with my friend earlier who has a budget of close to 800 USD and wants to buy all the parts from the local stores. I looked up all their online parts list and found that I could make a pretty good build using some of the things they have they.

 

He will be using this PC to probably play BattleField 4 or Watchdogs or something like that. Maybe some COD.

 

Here is the parts list:

CPU
 
        $219.89         CPU Cooler
 
        $28.98         Motherboard
 
        $113.75         Memory
 
        $69.99      
 
Storage
 
        $74.19         Video Card
 
        $229.99      
 
        Case
 
        $56.99      
 
Power Supply
 
       

$62.99

     
 

 

      Total:

$856.77

 

 

 

 

Please comment what you think and any ways you think I can improve without changing anything and I'll take a look and see if local stores have it. 

 

Thanks!

it includes rebate, its okay if u help ur friend to fill it. But i'll get one without Rebates.

We can get all these prices here and it adds up to nearly the same I think (give or take some).
