Posted March 6, 2016 I want to build a gaming PC and I have a budget of $500. I need some help picking the parts. I will be also using this for work like Microsoft office and web browsing. The main purpose of this build is gaming and streaming movies and videos. Can anyone help me with this build? What are the best choices for this build?
