So, I'm planning on using this as my first PC build, it's pretty budget, I'd like to stay at least under $1000. I'd love to get some feedback and suggestions from the knowledgeable people here.
 
The idea was to build a low budget gaming PC.
 
Also, if you guys could recommend good quality headphones, mice, keyboard, and speakers perhaps.
 
Thanks. :)
