First time build

Hello, I am a long time forum lurker but first time poster. I am looking to build a gaming PC somewhere in the price range of 500-800$ maybe 900$. I've always had issues with prebuilt PCs not being able to preform as advertised and I'm kind of sick of it. Over the past few years I've been follow LTT youtube and lurking the forums. So with that sad I was looking to pick up a rig from iBuyPower. Now I don't know what I'm doing so I was looking for some help. The types of games I'm looking to run are Rocket League, League of Legends and Guild Wars 2 with decent frames in the 50s-60s and 1080p if possible. Or something close I would be willing to upgrade components later. Any help with this would be awesome and I would appreciate it!

I'm guessing you are telling him to get windows from grey area sites/retailers

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/servicesagreement/

Section 8. Software Licencing

 

tell that to everyone else who does it.

I can't talk to them on their PC if they get their windows key revoked by the guy that sold it to them.

Well, it's not as bad as you think. As long as you dont go over the limits it's fine. And you can gain easy performance on a budget build.

If you go with a B150 mobo, get the Hyper as that one allows oc and its easy.
