i need a pc build

[yoggie123]

My friend is building a budget pc for 500 WAIT! he needs to include monitor,windows,keyboard,headset and the PC it self the price can fluctuate for 500-560$  USD

[Bananasplit_00]

no. just no. save up more money because there is no value what so ever at that price, maybe you can find something used but thats to litle to make a decent PC, not with perifiirals and monitor

[Vercii]

This really isn't worth it but I tried to go as low as I could. Your friend really needs to save up at least another 200 bucks.

Nice one, but i would upgrade the power supply since i've heard mostly negative things about the cx series. Probably get a silverstone one or one of those from cooler master with 5 year warranties or so

If you have another computer, you can get a license of windows 10 of kinguin for <$30 and then you can put that money you saved towards a better graphics card. If that's what you want, though it might be worth it to save up a bit longer to get something like an R9 380. Also it's worth noting there's a compatibility issue with your case and your motherboard- Case has usb 3 and your motherboard doesn't support it.

This looks pretty solid, though I would say get your windows license somewhere cheap like Kinguin.net and take out the optical drive, then you can afford an SSD if you want.

[yoggie123]

thats what ill do thx guys

First will work better for more CPU intensive tasks, second will be more gaming focused. Both good choices.

i went with an ATX board for the looks, coz i would mind about it

definitely go for your build if he wants more performance and not care about looks

Not really because an i3-6100 already outperforms it by a lot.

IMPORTANT EDIT: the i3 cant be OC-ed now, but this test should give a baseline answer

Invalidated RAM sounds like bullshit. My thought train: DDR4 + Skylake = fine. I need proof

ive dealt with 2 people so far with unvalidated ram not booting and they swapped to kingston hyper x black and it worked

proof... im lazy to dig for the thread in this forum... but its a known issue
