Hey guys my brother wanted to build his own AMD cheap gaming rig. Can you guys share what componets you should choose? I have no idea what's good on the AMD side. Lol I'm a intel and nvidia guy. Also he's not planning to OC so don't worry about the CPU cooler he will use the stock one.

Can you tell me if your gunna reuse any components? Or is it a completely fresh build?

Also, whether or not you need an OS and any other details if possible.

Only things I would change is maybe spending the last 40 dollars in a better board.

If you need a stronger GPU go for a fx 6300 and a 7970.

Also the OP said he won't OC so you could actually get away with a cheaper board and no CPU cooler and getting a better GPU.

It's a fresh build not reusing anything

Don't worry about anything else like the monitor and stuff just the computer it's self is what you need to worry about
