€400 PC build idea

[23Jack23]

I am going to build my first pc and I wonder if anyone could give some feedback on whether or not this pc would be any good for medium gaming and some light video editing.

Here is the build:
CPU - AMD Athlon X4 880K
Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-F2A88XM-HD3
GPU - ASUS GeForce GTX 750Ti 2gb
RAM - Crucial balistix sport 8gb single stick
HDD - Seagate 1Tb
PSU - EVGA 430 80+
Case - Corsair Carbide Series 100R

It would be great if somebody with experience could give some feedback.
Thank you

Switch the 750 ti with an rx 460. Other than that the build looks good.

If thats the best you can get fro 400 in your country then yes

i would REALLY recommend seeing if you can get an i3 in the budget instead of amd... getting an rx 460 will give you more performance than a 750ti, and the 500w/600w 80+ is not much more expensive than the 430 and it comes with an extra pci-e plug for future gpu expansion.

1- Get the RX 460/GTX 950, the 750ti is underpowered nowadays

2- consider the i3 6100 over the 880K, it has stronger single core IPC which is important for many games.

I read somewhere that for most games nowadays you need at least 4 cores. Is this true or is this not quite as essential as I thought?
