$800 1080p Rig and Advice

+Recover

Im building a rig just for 1080p gaming. I live in the US with a budget of $800 to $900 dollars the lower you can go the better.

My parents essentially told me that I can start with around this price and then can upgrade. 

Should I start with an SSD and then get mass storage later? Should I spend more on a better GPU to start with or should I put money into other parts of the build?

 

No peripherals needed.

Does the rig include any peripherals, or is 800 just for the rig? And how much storage do you use currently?

 

Also, please follow your topics.
