This is my first attempt at making a budget PC, and I was wondering what could be refined here?

Oh that's bad. Sorry but really it is. Let me make a way better one for you

[EunSoo]

Thats a very unbalanced build. Get an i5 and a 1060 or something like that

Cheap windows key at g2a or kinguin for around $30. I have that monitor and the color is bad. I would not get it. No IPS, No 144hz nothing. Just mediocre 1080p

bottleneck!

 

you are spending on too much expensive items

[Eazy Cheezy]

This is sitting a little closer to $1200, but you're looking at ability to upgrade. Plus, you can take about $200 off if you already have a monitor and speakers. Also, this takes a few rebates into mind... Hope I could help!
